Health-related issues, like doctor appointments with potential for bad news, are way outside of my comfort zone.  As a result, they are strong motivators that causes me to draw near to God.  In the days leading up to a doctor appoint of any kind, I get heavily dependent on God for peace, comfort, guidance, and a favorable outcome.  His presences is very comforting to me.

What I’m currently trying to focus on is maintaining a continued daily dependence on God.  It’s easy to be dependent on Him when I’m facing a challenge, but I also want to be dependent on Him, even when things are going well.

If I can depend on him during challenges, shouldn’t I also depend on Him during the good times as well?
