Have you ever communicated something to others only to find you needed it for yourself? Last Monday\u2019s Morning Manna was from Philippians 4:6, \u201cBe anxious for nothing\u201d with the emphasis on the \u201cfor nothing.\u201d Before the day was over, I needed that advice. I found myself in somewhat of a \u201cPhysician, heal yourself\u201d (Luke 4:23) mode. Scheduled for my sixth MOHS skin cancer surgery, I was surprised when the surgeon looked at my cheek, saw two small red spots and asked, \u201cWhich one is the one they biopsied?\u201d I didn\u2019t know. Not only did the dermatologist not send a picture following her biopsy, she was on maternity leave and could not be reached for an explanation. The pathology report only showed a basil cell skin cancer without identifying the exact location. So, I had to endure two additional biopsies, then be told that between the surgeon\u2019s schedule and my schedule, the next possible date to have the MOHS Surgery was September 8, a three month wait. On the way home from the Surgeon\u2019s office I was having a private pity party, when I remembered to \u201cbe anxious for nothing.\u201d \u201cLord,\u201d I asked, \u201cdoes NOTHING include a messed-up MOHS morning?\u201d I think you may know the answer I received. So, be very selective with the advice you pass on to others. You may need it for yourself.<\/p>\n
