So Blessed

Thank you so much for all of your continued prayers. I haven't written in my blog in a while and thought this was the time.

I feel so blessed. When I stop to think about the cancer that I have, where it's located, and the usual prognosis with this type of cancer, I am humbled to think God is allowing me to remain here.

Humbled? Why humbled? He's not through with me! So many have passed with this diagnosis, yet here I am. He must want to use me in some capacity. I pray I will glorify Him, choose life, and allow His Spirit to permeate through me.

One part of going to UAB that is so challenging is seeing all of the people who are suffering. There are so many. The waiting room is always full of patients. There is just so much pain and suffering in this world. If only everyone could know the Answer that I know. God is so good. Yes, I have cancer. Yes, others have it too and many have problems astronomically larger than mine. Jesus provides such comfort and relief. There's just no way to adequately describe what He does for me and for all who have accepted Him as Savior. Yes, I struggle physically and emotionally as well; however, I have an inner peace that simply cannot be described. His love is so immense and no matter what I do or fail to do, He will not love me any more or less that what He does now. I can't disappoint Him because He already knows what I'm going to do. There are no surprises for Him. He's got me in the Palm of His Hands, and one day I'll get to touch those precious Hands! Oh what a day that will be! And oh how I love Jesus!
