I don't mean that literally but have you heard that before? Well you don't have to listen to anyone diagnose failure... I think this will bless you. Read on.
Happy New Year everyone. I may not be actively online in the next few days but I wanted to share something with you. When I was diagnosed with MS the doctor confirmed that I had MS or multiple sclerosis. These were scars on my myelin sheath that were causing damage in my central nervous system... that was the diagnosis.
I cried like a baby for at least a month. Then it hit me.. multiple sclerosis is not a death threat it's just another journey in this thing called life. Medically, a diagnosis is the process of determining by examination the circumstances of a diseased condition. The spinal tap, the MRI and the other tests confirmed a medical degree for MS. Everyone who knows me knows that I view MS spiritually and physically. Spiritually, a diagnosis is a determining or analysis of the cause or nature of a problem or situation. Let's talk... flow with me for a second.
Spiritually, you may have been diagnosed as "a person that will never do better". People may be looking at your past, or your scars, and they can only diagnose you with failure based on what they see. Don't accept a FAILURE DIAGNOSIS! I understand that we all have made mistakes but that does not have to be the course of our life. That's just something that happened to teach us how to live better. Even though you may have been diagnosed with failure or damaging scars... don't let the diagnosis define your PROGNOSIS...
Medically, a prognosis is a forecasting of the probable course and outcome of a disease, especially of the chances of recovery. My diagnosis did not look promising. According to one doctor my mobility would not be certain before the age of thirty. He was forecasting the probable course of my disease. According to the circumstances I was wheelchair bound. Well, thank God there was a different prognosis. I am walking, working and becoming a thirty year old woman next week. God is definitely good.
Spiritually, your prognosis is the forecast of your future. Don't let a negative diagnosis define your prognosis. A matter of fact, don't let negative people define your life. You can and you will do better... if you trust God and believe you can have a positive prognosis. We all have a past but that has nothing to do with our present. Will you make mistakes again? You wouldn't be human if you didn't. The truth is we have a forgiving God and HE wants your love. So in a nutshell...No more damaging scars... no more sclerosis. Here's to you and your best life in 2012! ;)
