Yes, it is sad to see those kinds of situations. ๐Ÿ™ Unfortunately health benefits are often a deciding factor in taking a job or not. Learning not to live in fear is a huge lesson! I’m still trying to get that one down pat; I’m not there yet. Thanks for sharing from your experience, Maryleigh. Always helpful.

A newly married couple can hardly afford it and the deductibles! It frustrates me when I see young couples both working – a young mom needing to work for insurance instead of staying at home if she’d like. I’ve seen God work in amazing ways and provision, as we went out on our own in our business – and, yes, I got a job so our family could have insurance, in a job that didn’t use any of my skill or education, but when you have family and dreams, you do what you have to do. God brought me out of that job. I’ve learned not to live in fear, but in trust that God’s got this – though sometimes I have to keep reminding myself.

You say it well, Ceil: “My body is my gift from God, and heโ€™s got it.” That’s a truth I have to remind myself of; I tend to be a worrier.
We did have a great Thanksgiving and hope you did too!

I am intrigued – it probably won’t be until the new year, but i shall let you know.

I can relate to your post on a few levels. My husband and I are also on Obamacare for our health care, and it is very sobering to think about the cost without it.
I am also currently uncomfortable with back issues, and it’s limiting my ability to get things done. I want to relax and just let things settle down, but I do tend to worry. Your post helps me to see that my body is my gift from God, and he’s got it. Even something as small as this.
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. God bless your volunteer work,
Ceil

Ditto, Michele. We definitely both go through some books, yes? ๐Ÿ™‚ Thankful for you and all that you share!

If you do read it, Beverley, I’d like to get your perspective on it as one who suffers with such chronic pain. I consider myself having various chronic pains, too, but they have never been as debilitating as I know you and others suffer with.

It was a helpful book to me. It seems like I always have something (or MANY things) going wrong in my body at any point in time, so I’m always looking for helpful resources to keep my perspective straight.

Really??? Wow! I love when God connects the dots in ways like that. You can tell your friend that I found her husband’s book very fascinating and very helpful! I’ll continue to share about it with others. Blessings to you, Linda.

That’s a huge hike in premiums—ouch! I have a friend who will be faced with your dilemma in January as well, so now’s the time for doctor visits for her. Your bottom line is one we all need to stay focused on: “God uses each and every situation to mold us and make us more like Him, I believe this. Despite the eventual deterioration of my earthly body, I have a sure hope of my heavenly one.” So grateful for that! Hope you had a beautiful Thanksgiving yesterday.
