waiting...

As a legal secretary, I have decided that waiting for insurance approval is as nerve-wracking as waiting for a jury to return a verdict. Oh, Lord, please let me relax and truly give this decision to You. There is really nothing I can do at this point but wait. God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. It is in Your hands now, and the hands of the insurance processors. Please help them to make the right decision in my regard. Please, God, if it is within Your will, have them approve my application for surgery. In the meantime, I ask for Your peace that surpasses all understanding. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Hi Jill, God is in complete control of your surgery plans. Your submission to His will is a sign of your relationship with Him. God blesses our obedience and our submission to Him. Stay in His Word. Psalm 139 and Jeremiah 29:11 really blessed me as I waited through everything last summer. Big hugs, Trish

Jill, As an insurance agent who deals exclusively with health insurance, let me tell you that the battle sometimes takes a little time to reveal the true victor. Give it about 2 weeks to work its way through underwriting. We are seeing these things approved more often than we see declines. Not the case so many years ago, but now it is becoming pretty routine to approve when given the right set of factors. In His Loving Care - Sally

Waiting is terrible..My stuff for the surgery went really fast and I thought I would die before I got an answer. I am praying for you. hugs-Amy

HI Jill, I feel your pain, I seemed to be on the fast track to having RNY, having called my insurance got referal and completed all the necessary steps to having surgery with in a month. I had a scheduled date for April 3rd, when I was told that I had to now wait until June because some waiting period I hadn't been told able previously. I am still trying to find out if there is any way to get approval to schedule that surgery for June when my waiting period is up but haven't heard. I totally know your feelings of frustration, I am battling all kinds of mood issues. I feel if I could just have a date I could regain my vision. But we do have to leave every part of our journey up to the Lord. Your prayer really touched my heart. I'll be praying for you as we both await our verdict. Bless you, Vivi
