Say hello to my new “heart”. If you’ve been Say hello to my new “heart”. If you’ve been following along with my health journey, here’s an update: (check out the ❤️ saved highlight in my profile some more details) on 2/12/21 I had a CRT-D device placed in my chest to help resynchronize my heart (if you’d like to read about CRT-Ds there’s a link in my bio).⁣
⁣
Our bodies are miracles, aren’t they? As well as the team of doctors, nurses, and staff at Mayo that took care of me last week. I trusted them to do the jobs they’ve been trained to do so that I can feel better. They are miracle workers. I’ll know in 3 months at my check-up if the procedure has been successful in making my heart ejection fraction higher. ⁣
⁣
We are so thankful for the Mayo team and our family and friends across the country that were praying for us. Ultimately, because of my faith in Jesus, he is responsible for all the answered prayers this week. ⁣
⁣
God is so good. And here’s the thing, if the outcome of the surgery from last Friday would have been different, because of our eternal perspective and faith in Jesus, I believe we still would be proclaiming God’s goodness. ⁣
⁣
The words on my heart as I prepared for surgery were: Jesus, Hope, Faith, Trust, and Restore. They will continue to be my words as I heal. ⁣
⁣
Love you, friends ❤️⁣
⁣
p.s. We’ve nicknamed the device Pete, affectionately after my Grandmother Pete. She was small in height but mighty in spirit. Not much could stop her! 💪🏻⁣

“For the joy set before him he endured the cross...” Hebrews 12:2⁣
⁣
You are the joy that was set before him. ⁣
⁣
Jesus endured the cross for us and considered it joy. ⁣
⁣
How can we experience true joy? Joy that outlasts the turmoil of 2020? Joy that surpasses all understanding? Joy that isn’t stolen by a diagnosis? One answer: Jesus. ⁣
⁣
May your true joy be made more complete this Christmas by remembering what Jesus has done for you.
