'Tis the Season

November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month. It is not lost on me that we share this month with Thanksgiving and thoughts of gratitude, which I have: a heart full of gratitude

Your Caps Lock is On

Fear tries to overshadow faith, but my Father picks me up, like He always has, and whispers, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.” Mark 5:34

Two Years

For those of you who have your own cancerversary, love someone who does, or grieves someone who did, I see you. More importantly; God sees you.

Seeking Joy: Update

Thank you, Jesus, for your continued healing hand, for carrying me when I can’t quite take the step, and for holding my hand and walking with me through this life.

Jesus, you are who you say you are. The bible is filled with God’s truth. Those who belong to Him can have confidence in His protection.

Seeking Joy

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:4, 6-7

Give Thanks

The Lord is my strength and my shield; in Him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.

Back to That Place II: The Update.

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Back to That Place

And with one scan and one conversation, I am back to that place. That place is the most brutal palace I’ve ever visited, where fear reigns, and my faith and hope struggle for a breath within me.

Grattitude

Thank you, God, for continuing to heal my body. Thank you, God, for blessing me with a beautiful, chaotic, exhausting summer; I pray that so many more follow.

Thank you for authoring such a beautiful story in our lives.

It’s us against the world!

We do not walk alone.

This past year has made it evident that many people care and love us. We may have traveled different paths to get to where we are, but, in the end, our lives have intersected. We are intertwined, which has brought so much good in turn. We wanted a way to speak of those who have come to be by our sides. This is the first in a series of posts highlighting those on the journey with us. We are grateful for you.

Trading my Fears for Faith

One Day, Lord, help me see just one day at a time and see your GLORY. Help me keep FAITH in total HEALING, but also FAITH that you are holding my entire family.
