Wisdom

Yesterday, I had a minor wisdom tooth surgery at Khoo Teck Phuat Hospital in the afternoon. 

Thank GOD that the surgery went smoothly and He provided a skilful dentist who did the job in 20 minutes including the application of local anaesthesia.  The queuing and waiting for the medication to go with it took much longer - 45 minutes.

 
The wisdom tooth was still quite good and solid but unfortunately it was growing slanted towards the pre-molar next to it, thus affecting both teeth.  So, pay one get one free, the pre-molar extraction came free with it :)  I was still conscious of every movement the dentist made, even the two stitches he did to close up the gum.  Thank GOD all was well in His hands as my husband prayed for me :)

The recovery is good thus far - no pain and discomfort, am still able to eat well and sleep well :)

This is just a wisdom tooth that we can do without but we need the wisdom that comes from GOD above which is found when we fear Him. 

"The fear of the Lord is foundation of true wisdom.  All who obey His commandments will grow in wisdom.  Praise Him forever!"  Psalm 110:10
