I brought some pain to the attention of the <a href="https://westheimerdentist.wordpress.com/2016/08/12/identifying-hard-foods-to-avoid-pain-after-your-root-canal-treatment/" rel="nofollow">dentist</a>, and he informed me that if I did not get a crown on that tooth, it would eventually break and the procedure to repair or save the tooth would be worse. The scary part is when the dentist told me how much the crown cost.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04116768069833184899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-41682167736757427642015-12-30T14:05:19.499-08:002015-12-30T14:05:19.499-08:00Since it has been a long time since I visited the ...Since it has been a long time since I visited the dentist but plan to see her soon I am going to save this to read later.

I need to introduce you to my new dentist...she does a crown all in one four hour period...a new method and a wee bit more expensive, but not much more than the other way. But this method does not guarantee that she got all the cavity out before she puts it on. Believe me, I know that one! : / Arghhh! <br />On the other hand, the Crown of Jesus is a hard one too, yet we have been assured that He paid it all once and for always!

I have a lot of crowns and over a year ago, lost a back tooth that could not be saved. My Dentist said he could do an implant, but it was crazy all the appointments and process I went through and still don't have the tooth. Soon maybe next year. I enjoyed your illustrations of how the Jewish people expected Jesus to come wearing a crown and deliver them, They failed to recognize Him just like today many do not realize Jesus is their savior and one of these days He will come riding a white horse and wearing a crown. Now is the day of salvation and it is best to prepare now to meet Him.

I have many crowns, but the only one needed is His eternal one. <br /><br />I agree with Mary (Saleslady371) that it's no fun getting old(er)! <br /><br />I was here early on my Smart device but hen-pecking a comment there, is no fun either and it would have been really short (lol, I'm sure a much needed preference to most)... however, for you, my very 'gifted'writer, sister in Christ, who makes time to lift my spirit and encourage me with much wisdom at my place, well, how can I BE short with you (it'd be nice if that included - BE Wise and BE Gifted in sharing). I'd just like to tell you how very much you mean to me, Sharon, year round, you never fail to deliver a spiritual connection in your messages here and with me & so many others. I thank you (especially for the motivation you gave me in last week's post of decorating and the exuberant JOY it gave you and me vicariously through your writing). You are so honest and your vulnerability makes you ever so near and dear. You pack no punches and deal it like it is --- no 'fake' stuff, you are the real deal as Jesus Christ is. I pray that you find/and found healing this year, even in this most painful dental odyssey but mostly in your inner person and spirit. Your gift of writing never ceases to amaze me! The right words for the right moment! <br /><br />I'd like to send you the BIGGEST CHRISTmas GIFT to unwrap but you already possess the One I'd send with so much love and a wish for a very merry and blessed CHRISTmas for you, your mom, your sons and daughter-in-love, Marty and all your family! May God shine brightly upon you and yours with favor, a bit of prosperity seemingly needed in the expenses of this ordeal and much health!<br /><br />I LOVE you Sharon and appreciate knowing you, with the added bonus of reading your masterpieces (for free) with such JOY and HOPE! <br /><br />Peace be with you in Jesus Christ,<br />Peggy(not so good at Christmas card sending so this may have to do :)Peggynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-26563813402915741212015-12-21T11:32:19.378-08:002015-12-21T11:32:19.378-08:00Hi, Sharon!

However, I am happy that your tooth was able to be saved, even if it's a costly crown. And I'm happy we were all saved when Jesus put His crown aside, humbling Himself to earth to die a costly death for us. Salvation.<br /><br />It is no fun getting old.<br /><br />Merry Christmas,<br />MarySaleslady371https://www.blogger.com/profile/15962608799409882219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-12311413234418155052015-12-21T11:12:45.345-08:002015-12-21T11:12:45.345-08:00You have such a gift, my friend.

My mother had gum surgery years ago. It was the only time that I can remember in my whole life that my mother cried in pain and called me to ask me to help her. She was in agony afterwards. <br /><br />You know, as I was reading this, I had this thought that we cannot receive the crown (in the dental world or in the spiritual one) without killing the root of poison in our lives. <br /><br />So many profound thoughts here. I'm sorry you had to endure all that--when you receive your dental crown, don't mistake it for the one you'll receive in heaven and throw it at the dentist's feet! He may not appreciate it, and neither would you! Okay, yeah, dumb humor, but somehow, I think you'll find it amusing. I think you get my dumb humor.<br /><br />Very merry Christmas to you out in the boonies!Mary Dolan Flahertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05739724561596823855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-66091519885475809242015-12-21T08:29:47.596-08:002015-12-21T08:29:47.596-08:00What a fun read.
