It was no joke being admitted to the hospital for dengue fever. Family and friends were pretty worried but somehow when a friend was sending me to the hospital, she asked whether I was afraid. I replied that I don't feel a thing. As if it was just a normal fever.
I've no idea how I could stay calm in such a state. The pain that came before being admitted to the hospital was great. Severe headache and joint pain which a friend told me that it was a torturing sickness. But thankfully mine was not as severe as I thought it would.
I ended up lying on the hospital bed for four days and I'm grateful that my stay at this "five star hotel" did not extend beyond that. Sleepless nights is what I describe while being in this "hotel". On the 2nd night I prayed and asked God to leave my 2 bedded room just for myself and He answered my request which comes with a sweet and undisturbed sleep.
As I reflect upon this period of sickness, I realised that this is how God is telling me to stop and rest as my days were filled with unending meet-ups, work and church activities. This carried on for weeks which turned to months and here I am wondering how did my 2013 passed by so quickly.
Though to some this is somewhat an unfortunate event but to me, it is definately a time to rest and to spend time with the Almighty.
Thank you Lord for being so good to me and I'm grateful for all that you have done. In good and bad times may your praises continue to be on my lips and in my heart. ^-^
