I love how the Lord works; He is faithful! During all of my trouble times, God is being more real that ever and this is a good story of how He loves me and sends me what I call, His love letters.
Yesterday I was sad because I've been tired and sleepy; too much tired and sleepy. I think that the pills that I am taking for my thyroid problem are not working that good any more and then, I got upset. I was SO upset because I wasn't looking to be sick with cancer, and it bothers me a lot the whole situation Craig and I are going throught.
The whole time that all of this health issues started to happen, I've been telling myself that the Lord is fixing our bodies for something great and amazing that He is going to do, just because I believe that's the way He works; the greater the adversity, the greater the blessing! For being focused on our health, I totally forget about the green card and only once, two weeks ago, I told Craig that I was still hoping that we won't need the interview part and that we will get it by mail.
Last night, Craig prayed for us and I woke up feeling SO much better, with energy and feeling strong again; see, people think I am strong, but the truth is that my strength comes from God. After having breakfast, Craig went to work and like five minute after, he came back with the mail; I thought it was just for the welcome letter we were waiting for, because we had got an e-mail last week telling us for the approval of my permanent resident, but it also said that we will get it in the next 60 days...What a blessing for us that this morning we got my green card. Now, for all of you who don't know, we applied for a k1 visa, which allowed me to come and get married and after that, we needed to apply for change of statues, which is a long process. It was in totally 13 months to finally hold my permanent resident card on my hands, and it was not always easy.
This is the part where the love letter from God came; after Craig prayed yesterday, it came to my mind that we can declare good things for us to happen, I was telling God that He could just say it and things will change, but all I hear from Him was: You can also declare good things to happen.
His love letter for me was to get that card this morning, because it is something I was waiting for, it shows me that even though I feel weak, tired or sleepy, He is working; it doesn't matter if there are times when I can't feel Him, in the middle of His silence, He is closest, He is working for the good of those who seek His name. God's love letter are the most incredible blessings I could get, the more powerful letter I could have and in the middle of my sadness I can truly see how He is able to change it into happiness.
Thank you Jesus for your love letter, for showing me how much you care and for my dreams that come true. You are faithful!!!
