Powerful

God has a unique way of sending just the right person across our path during difficult times.  For instance, the other day I was feeling a little down until I read some of the comments on this site.  There is hardly a day that does by that God doesn't send someone by with a small word of encourgement that lifts my spririt at just the right time.  He knows what we need and assures us that we are not alone.  "Have I not commanded you?  Be strong and courageous.  Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."  Joshua 1:9

Just a small word of encouragement, or an offer of help can make a world of difference when dealing with Cancer.  I believe God doesn't ask us to move mountains with our faith but to use what He gives us when He places the opportunity before us.  Jan, you may never know this side of heaven how your life has affected your husband's faith, but we are only called to plant the seed and let God do the rest in his timing. 

I agree that I don't believe God is punishing us by giving us Cancer, but I prefer to think that if someone has to have it, He has given me the strength to endure.

Faith

I just started the new chemo

I just started the new chemo on Friday so my face should turn into a mess in a few days. My clostest friend's daughter is getting married this weekend and I'm going and don;t want to look like  freak but so far the bumps havem't shown up yet. I can see some beneath the surface of my skin waiting to pop up like a hideous jack in the box but bot quite yet. If they're out but have just started on Saturday I'll be good. It's when they start bleeding that it's a real treat. I'm angry that we had to turn down the reception. I just don't have the energy and my diet is still so sketchy. Plus I never know from day to day if I'll feel okay. I was good all day yesterday and then cramped up badly in the early evening. Bad enough to make me double over.

I will say this, though. I was saying my evening prayer during one of the cramps and I asked Him to make ot stop and a few seconds later it did and it didn't come back. I slept well after that.

The power of prayer is

The power of prayer is definately a supernatural thing.  Hope you feel better.

I'm going to see Kid Rock on

I'm going to see Kid Rock on Sept 13 at the brand new Little Ceasars Arena. Main floor. So excited for that. I need some prayers for my seventeen year old. He had a Spontaneous Primary Pneumothorax (collapsed lung). Two hospital stays, one surger, and I'm still worried about this boy. 

I hope the wedding is wonderful and the rash stays away or minimal.

Praying for your son

Having this disease is a trial by itself to us parents, but seeing our kids getting sick is twice the agony.  I pray for his speedy recovery.

Oh Phil, I'm so sorry! I hope

Oh Phil, I'm so sorry! I hope he's going to be okay, please keep us posted!! Poor guy, that sounds horrible. Sending healing thoughts to him.

The wedding was beautiful and I made it through part of the reception so I was very happy and grateful for that blessing. And my face broke out later that night so I managed to avoid looking horrible. And it's actually not too bad at this point. My face is bumpy but whatever, as long as it doesn't burn and bleed like last time I can live with it. Thank you for your thoughts!!
