I am spending the holiday in pain. I don't understand why, but I'm always getting sick on the weekends. I now have strep throat. It erupted over the weekend and I had to wait until Monday to see the doctor. He took one look and wrote the prescription, doing the culture was "a technically", he said. Before I was home from the office, they had called and said it tested positive. Now I'm waiting for the rest of my family to fall ill.
Sometimes I think God allows me to get sick so I appreciate my health more. Its so easy to fall into a rut. When you are brought down by disease, you really appreciate how being healthy allows you to get the most out of life. When I was unable to sleep and my tonsils were so swollen even breathing was a chore, I remember telling God, "Please heal me and I'll never complain about cleaning my home again. I'll do it with joy because I will have the health to accomplish it." Believe me I'm very thankful for the blessing of Azithromycin!
