S04E024, Andy B 2 Minute Video, Do What You Can When You Can
Episode description
As a Stay-At-Home-Dad for more than 15 years I’ve thoroughly loved everything with caring for my family and our home.
But since catching Covid a little over a month ago, discovering an issue with my heart, getting through a lung infection and adjusting to a whole host of medication to keep me healthy until the heart issue can be resolved, it has taken a lot out of me.
The most challenging part is being on blood thinners. Because there is so much I can’t do, or need to seriously question whether I should do that, or not.
My family are great, and have been doing everything to make me feel valuable and loved, despite me doing virtually nothing around the home for nearly 5 weeks. At the time of writing, I’m still doing everything I can to ensure my heart rate remains as low as practicable, which further restrict what I can actually do.
But, today, for the first time in more than 7 weeks, I changed the bedding on Jo, and my, bed.
I can’t tell you how chuffed I was to be able to accomplish this seemingly small thing. And when you can’t do something, that ‘thing’ becomes an ever greater obstacle.
But. And this is a big but! When we can’t do what we normally do, it opens up to us the possibility of doing different things. And that can be immensely beneficial.
While there are things that are, God willing only temporarily out of my reach right now, there is still plenty I can do!
So, where is God asking you to step forward, and “Do What You Can When You Can?”
Just a thought…
