Proverbs 31 Ministries President Lysa TerKeurst recently underwent significant surgery to remove half her colon.  

The results could have been devastating, but the power of prayer saved her life.  

"Lysa, I don't like throwing around the word miracle. But the fact you survived this is a miracle. The pathology report showed your cells were in a state of death," TerKeurst recalls her doctor saying. 

She writes

I had no words. Except "thank you." Thank You, God. Thank you friends who prayed me through this. Thank you to this surgeon who finally figured out why I was in excruciating pain for days and days in that hospital bed.
Thank you that I still get to do life. So, here I sit. But this quiet Monday morning is different.
I have a sacred realization. I have 15 staples in my belly. And I have a complete refocus on just how precious every second of every day truly is.
Might we all dare to whisper "it's a gift" to God today.
When the baby is crying and the deadlines are pressing and the stress is mounting and the enemy whispers "just get through this crappy day." Look up and shame the enemy back to hell by acknowledging today is a gift.
A gift from a good, good Father. And then look, seek, and dive deeply into what a true gift it is.

Praise God!
