It's coming

Originally when we went in for Blake's helmet, insurance wasn't going to cover ANY part of it. On top of that if they were going to cover just a small percentage of it, we were going to probably have to wait two months to reposition him. With Jason's diligence in talking to insurance and the company that will be doing Blake's helmet, we got the insurance to pay more than 80% of the helmet cost and we don't have to wait to months to reposition Blake.

I would like to say that I prayed and prayed that the insurance company would cover the helmet costs, but I would pray here and there when I thought about it. I began to think how in some things I have prayed for months and even years diligently for God to change a situation, to bless someone, to provide, or to heal...and it has yet to be answered. And then there's Blake's helmet situation where I prayed here and there as I was cleaning the floor or changing Blake's diaper and then suddenly in a matter of a few weeks the prayer is answered. I wonder how you can pray months or years for something and have it not change and then pray here and there for something for a few weeks and have it answered so quickly....I guess you can say is God's will for Blake to have this helmet.

I've always wondered too why God answers so prayers so quickly and some are slow, I guess it's to build faith and teach us perseverance. Such good news to hear that it won't be a long time and that insurance will cover so much. PTL.

What a blessing! I always think of the verse "Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete."
