"Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to Him be glory!" (Ephesians 3:20-21).
Our God is full of surprises. Without a doubt He keeps His promises, but He also delights in showering us with unexpected blessings. Like the blessing of an incredibly, miraculously easy medical procedure this morning with our first daughter. All of our past horrible experiences with this test and worst fears for this round -- well, God knew that today was to be different.
And why, again, do I doubt Him? Why, again, do I assume the worst-case scenario rather than trusting that my God can do anything? We still have some difficult decisions to make about surgery for our daughter, but I have a strange peace about it, knowing that the Lord is in control.

So, we are confident and ready for test number two with daughter number two tomorrow. And "in the morning, Lord, I will lay my requests before you and wait expectantly." (Psalm 5:3). Because, I trust - I know - that "You do awesome things that we do not expect." (Isaiah 64:3).
