Knee reconstruction

Well it is almost D Day with the knee. Happening tomorrow at 7.30am. Wendy will take me to the hospital at 7.30 and then I am in the hands of the surgeon. All going well I should stay one night and then back home for recovery. I hope to show photos on the blog of the happenings and perhaps even some notes the surgeon gave me of what they intend to do. As I have said before I am actually more nervous about this one then last time as I know what to expect and know how well the last one went.

I had a dream the other night that I was lying down on a white sand beach and my leg was still covered with a dressing. I looked to the side and in the distance I saw a figure standing beckoning me to come to them. I gingerly stood and realised that there did not appear to be any pain in my leg, I removed the dressing and all I saw of the surgery was two or three little nicks, which was my experience last time. I turned to the figure and began to jog slowly gaining speed. I started to race, the soft breeze sliding past my face. I gained momentum and speed and my legs were running like I was young again. I was full of joy. As I ran towards the figure I raised my hands to the air calling thank you Lord Thank you Lord and as I looked to the figure it became quite clear that it was Jesus. I did not stop but ran straight to his arms and we embraced.

I thoroughly enjoyed the dream and felt refreshed and with great courage to face my experience.

Subjectivity

The human is naturally subjective. The very act of writing this could bring about debate and is subjective. I don't believe you can have total human objectivity. Our personalities, our beliefs, our experiences whether vast or shallow can bear testament to this. Therefore "what is truth?"
Well it doesn't come from ourselves. This leads me to believe in something outside our understanding and that which it is , is God.

We attempt to objectively rationalise his existance or non-existance but there we go again. It is all subjective. Where am I going with this? I respectfully and whole heartedly believe in a God, becasue I have experienced him and I don't just mean through what I see around us as this is debated and will always be debated, but rather through a touch from him in my soul. and the bible has been the teaching that has made this to be true in my life. God is into relationship, one on one and until one has experienced a relationship with God one cannot objectively or subjectively make conclusions.

I believe in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God and he died and rose again on the third day. He did this to save me from my sin. Full of grace. I am a follower of Jesus Christ, which we say is a Christian.

Now before you subjectively or objectively judge me please experience me.

What has inspired me to write this was someone elses perspective as subjectively trying to make God logical. I don't think he can be although alot of the biblical teachings are logical.
