How do I walk forward?

Every three years I participate in a nine year CADASIL study

Common symptoms of CADASIL include:

• Migraine headaches with aura
• Multiple strokes progressing to dementia
• Confusion or coma (caused by acute encephalopathy, which can accompany CADASIL) 
• Progressive decline in memory and thinking skills 
• Mental health issues, including apathy, depression, and bipolar disorder

Less common symptoms of CADASIL include:

• Seizures
• Vision problems
• Slow movements and tremors (parkinsonism)
• Numbness or weakness
• Rapid onset of vertigo, nausea/vomiting, and abnormal gait

The stroke I had in December 2024 was memorable and a reminder. I’m not God and He is in control. I’m surrendered to whatever He wants to do with me to testify and keep volunteering in the children’s ministry as He allows me to walk (mobility), talk(speech) and see (vision/sight).

I got double vision. It really gave me a scare I thought what next? God is in control of my anatomy. Yes, God allowed me to regain my sight. The double vision lasted one week. Crazy but humbling. He let’s me see. I got new glasses and the ophthalmologist said my eyes were like normal. Nothing negative other than having CADASIL. God! CADASIL! That’s sums it up. Brain is in control of my vision! Of course I had a stroke. The MRI, CAT scan were physical images that state I had a stroke. No argument there. The evidence are the images.

God is omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent. Definition of omniscient he knows everything. Omnipresence means all-present. This term means that God is capable of being everywhere at the same time. It means his divine presence encompasses the whole of the universe. The word omnipotent is having unlimited power and omnipresent and is the Great almighty God. Why underestimate Him? He knows your situation. He is real. He does exist. You are not a mistake. He created you with a plan and purpose. Testify why you believe?

He is sovereign. The reminder that He can do whatever He wants. I’m the daughter of King Jesus. I’m a child of God. You can also be His child just accept Him as the Lord of your life. He’s in control. He created the universe and you in it.

This stroke shook me up! Psalm 119 is the longest scripture which describes the God of the universe.

Salvation is believing Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He died on the cross to pay for our sins. No one is perfect. No matter what the diagnosis. You are not perfect and this is why Jesus died on the cross for everyone. No one is perfect. We all need a savior.

Psalm 139:8 New King James Version

⁸ If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in ^[a]hell, behold, You are there.

Read and pray daily. Open your Bible daily. Talk to God daily and thank Him for the life He allows you to live.

1 John 3New King James Version

The Command to Love

3 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of ^[a]God! Therefore the world does not know ^[b]us, because it did not know Him. ² Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
