Recovering

Recovering from a total knee replacement. Finding time in the surrounding silence of my house to pray and to worship. Learning to see that accepting the pain and doing the work of recovery can be offerings, acts of worship before a Holy God. It is also teaching me to be so very thankful for the small things.

Today my husband brought me a cup of coffee in bed. Made perfectly. It was an unexpected gift. I am still savoring the moment.
He also brought me an ice pack. It was better than french toast with blueberries or a bouquet of pink roses. It was divine!

Now I am ensconced on the sofa watching Jane Eyre. It doesn't get much better than that.
