Some time ago there were many good things happening in my life, but there were also some changes happening, and I was concerned. And it was a very busy time. We had a lovely holiday visiting my son in Montenegro, but while I was there I noticed that I was starting to lose an excessive amount of hair from an area of my head, to the extent that part of my scalp was starting to show. After I returned from travelling, my hairdresser noticed on various visits that the area appeared to be getting bigger.
The first aspect I had to deal with was fear. After one of my visits to the hairdresser, a Bible verse came to thought, and I opened my Bible and found it very quickly. It was Christ Jesus’ words, “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered” (Matthew 10:30). I pondered it for a long time that day, including the verses before and after, and considered its meaning and why Jesus said it. I felt totally cared for and loved by God, and it was a lovely feeling. I continued to pray with that verse, and I prayed to know that I was a complete spiritual idea of God, lacking nothing, whole now and always. I knew that any supposed lack of any kind was unreal, because there is no lack in God’s ever-present goodness.
I didn’t make any new hair appointments, and I did what I could so that I didn’t draw attention to the problem.
