Be Expectant

Resilient
/
Andrea Thompson

Chin-up, it’s time to raise your hopes.

Hope could best be defined as the “confident expectation of God doing Good in your life”.

Simply put, without expectation, you have very little chance of ever seeing the dreams and desires of your life come to pass.

Let’s look at Abraham’s life from the Bible. God promised him a son.  But the promise took a little while to come to pass.

There were a few other perceived setbacks in the process. Abraham and his wife were REALLY old, and in practical terms, their bodies were beyond childbearing years.

And…

Abraham waited until he was 100 years old before he saw his promise from God. Can you imagine how discouraging it would be waiting day in and day out until you were 100 years old to see the promise that God had for you?

In the end, God blessed Abraham far and above Abraham’s expectations.

But…Abraham maintained his expectation that God would do something good.

Abraham never lost hope, and he was always expectant of God’s faithfulness.

Romans 4:18 says:

Against ALL HOPE, Abraham IN HOPE believed and so he became the father of nations.

“Against all hope” meant that when all the circumstances and life issues made it look like the promise would never come to pass…he didn’t lose the expectation that good was coming.

Based on this, I think there’s a few things we can take away from ‘ole Abe’s’ story to help us in our own journey:

  • Get a promise from God. Be persistent until you get one.
  • Keep the promise (the vision) in front of you
  • Remind yourself regularly that God is always faithful to His promise.

Expectation gives you strength when things don’t seem like they are working out, but also gives you joy for the good things that are ahead.

In the hard times when you think it’s not going to work out, allow your mind to stop focusing on what’s not happening, and instead, create a vision for the future.

For example, if you’ve always wanted to have a baby, and things haven’t worked out yet, go to the bookstore and read magazines about parenting, or go to the hardware store with your spouse and pick out paint colors and themes for the baby’s room.

If you think this is crazy, I understand, but in essence, that’s what Abraham did. God’s original promise was that Abraham’s descendants would outnumber the stars.

So, what did Abraham do on the hard days? I think he went and tried to count stars at night, knowing his family heritage would exceed the picture in front of him.

When I had cancer, I would routinely make myself envision my children at their future wedding, or picture myself holding my future grandkids.

Guess what? It works.

It’s not easy to always believe in something when you can’t see it. But think about it this way…you still know the sun is there even when it isn’t shining, you still believe in love even when it can’t always be felt, and you still believe in God even when he is silent.

So even when you can’t see the promise right in front of you, remind yourself of the faithfulness of God and be expectant of the amazing things he has for you.

I’d love to hear from you. What are you expecting?

    After praying for my husband for 40 yrs. God heard my cries & prayers & our marriage was restored. He became who God meant for him to be. Never give up praying.

    My Mother prayed for her sister to get saved & after 20 yrs. if prayer, she came to the Lord. God has His own timing, trust in Him.

    I’m expecting my promise, to have my own children, to come to pass. I was given a word, that I would have 3 children, and they would all have hearts after God. I’ve never lost hope that He would make it happen, and I’m still waiting on Him. I know His timing is perfect.

FOLLOW UP

Your blood changes about every 4 months in response to your environment, diet, emotions, travel etc. so following up with Dr. Hilu is important.

When he will need to reanalyze your blood will depend on his findings and the protocol you receive. He will not ask you to retest before 4 months and may recommend a follow up in 6, 8 or even 12 months.

Following up is a crucial part of the process since it is how Dr. Hilu and his team track your progress and update your protocol accordingly.

The last page of your results will include when to retest but you will also receive an email reminder. You will then order a follow up kit the same way as your first test.

Your follow up results will include:

  • The percentage of improvement in the areas listed in your first results
  • Any new findings that need to be addressed
  • An updated treatment plan/protocol

SUPPORT

Once Dr. Hilu analyzes your blood, you will be considered one of his patients and the clinic will be available to answer any questions you may have.

Our team of Personal Health Instructors are also available for hire if you feel it would be beneficial for you to speak with a health coach. Your Personal Health Instructor can help interpret your cellular analysis results and provide answers and tools to help you implement your protocol.

This includes:

  • Going through your results one line item at a time explaining Dr. Hilu’s findings. Helping to identify a theme in Dr. Hilu’s findings and highlight some potential root causes (dietary, stress, physical exercise etc).
  • Providing practical recommendations of changes  you can make in your everyday routine that support the protocol and its effectiveness. Without making these lifestyle changes, the supplements will only be so effective.
  • Thoroughly explaining Dr. Hilu’s recommendations and treatment plan and simplifying what your daily routine will look like.
  • Spending as much time as you are willing to address some of the emotional stressors that could be hindering healing and supporting you with tools that you can use to alleviate them.
  • A thorough follow up email after your consultation with all of the links to the suggested supplements (it is very important to use high quality and ethically sourced supplements), PDF food/recipe recommendations and other recommendations that are specific to you.

You can learn more about consultations here

TREATMENT PLAN

Your treatment plan will include a list of specific supplements you should purchase along with instructions on how to take each product and for how long.

Other potential recommended treatments may include:

  • Therapies
  • Detoxes
  • Cleanses
  • In more severe cases, receiving on-site treatment at Dr. Hilu’s clinic in Marbella, Spain

RECOMMENDATIONS

Under “Recommendations” in your results, Dr. Hilu and his team will list lifestyle changes you should make in order to maximize the effectiveness of your treatment plan.

It is crucial to address every area in order to see the results you are looking for.

Some examples include:

  • Certain foods or food groups to avoid or minimize
  • Specific foods to add to your diet
  • Detox suggestions
  • Tips to address eating habits
  • Potential sensitivities to avoid/address (nickel, emf, humidity, toxins, etc.)
  • Exercise suggestions if applicable
  • Tips to improve mental/emotional health
  • Tips to address environmental factors
  • Dental suggestions if applicable
  • Tips for reducing stress and stressors

And much more according to Dr. Hilu’s findings…

Dr. Hilu’s Findings

Your results will include a complete list of all the abnormalities and imbalances Dr. Hilu found in your blood (does not include numbers or levels).

It is difficult to give a list of specific details you will receive in your results since every test differs from person to person depending on what Dr. Hilu sees in their cells.

You can find a list below of some of the things that he can see:

  • Permeability of the cell
  • If oxygen is getting into the cells
  • Every organ and organ system in the body
  • Vitamin deficiency or if a person is producing too much and not eliminating certain nutrients
  • Metallic and chemical toxicity
  • How cells are communicating with each other or not
  • Abnormalities or diseases with no name or origin
  • Oxidation stress which would hinder biological years
  • Imbalance of hormones but not specific levels or numbers
  • Everything about the immune system including any imbalances or infections
  • If you have food intolerances (not full panel test)
  • Joint and tissue degeneration
  • Inflammation
