Merciful God

In October 2021, I underwent radiotherapy to treat my thyroid eye disease.  There were a total of 10 daily treatment sessions.

Besides radiotheray,  I underwent Intravenous Methylprenisolone treatment (IMPT) in March 2022.  I went through weekly treatment for 12 weeks.

With IMPT, I battled awful side effects.  Heart palpitations, leg cramps, leg stiffness, metallic taste in my mouth and insomnia.

To date, I am still following up with the specialists at Singapore National Eye Centre.

I call to mind the goodness and faithfulness of almighty God.  I was able to go through the difficult days because of the Lord. 

As I reflect on the days and months when I battled the side effects of IMPT.  I was not depending on my ability.  God gave me supernatural strength.  He empowered me with with hope and optimism.  The power of God is real.

The Lord watches over us.  His intervention and loving support sustain us daily.  As we trust our maker, He floods our hearts with His divine presence.  

God is with us.  He is with us in the raging storms.  He is in complete control.  In our chaos, His still small voice gives us immense strength and hope.

The goodness and mercy of God will follow us all the days of our lives.  As we set our eyes on the Lord, we anchor our hope in His unfailing love.
