Good afternoon everyone,
Terri (my sister) sent me such a great verse...1 Sam.17:48 "Then it
happened when the Philistine rose and came and drew near to meet
David, that David ran quickly toward the battle.."
By God's strength and grace tomorrow I'm running back to the battle.
God has overwhelmingly given an abundance of everything...strength,
appetite, and unbelievable joy!!!! Only God could do that. May He
receive all the glory and praise!!!! My hair is finally falling out.
It, by far, has been the most difficult. People will say, "it's only
hair". I know but I have become very fond of it in the last 44
years. The Lord in His compassion has allow it to slowly fall out.
Giving me time to adjust and mourn. The only sustaining comfort we
will ever receive will come from our Lord. While everyones
encouragement is important, it is only temporal. Only the Words of
our God endureth forever!
In my quiet time this morning the Lord assured me to the place
where I'm headed. Ps. 66:10 "For Thou hast tried us, O God; Thou
hast refined us as silver is refined. Thou didst bring us into the
net; Thou didst lay an oppressive burden upon our loins. Thou didst
make men ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water;
Yet Thou didst bring us out into a place of abundance".
While I have the lack of hair, He will take me to a place of
abundance that I've yet to experience. Our Lord has not been disloyal
yet! He never will be to HIs children. 2 Tim. 2:13 "If we are
faithless, He remains faithful; for He cannot deny Himself".
Rejoice with me that our God attends our prayers. I love that He is
concerned about what I am concerned about. I love that all of God's
promises are yes and amen to me. If I get a no, it is really a yes
from God. Please pray with me that tomorrow I will be a sweet aroma
to those in the chemo room. That the days following my chemo will be
easy..."for HIs burden is easy and light and He will give you rest".
That I will 1 pet. 1:13...keep my mind girded, my spirit sober and my
hope set on the grace that is to be given at the revelation of Jesus
Christ".
We loved seeing our Ga. friends this weekend!!! Love you so much!!!
Thank you for doing all that you have done!
Ps. 34:5 "They looked to Him and were radiant, and their faces shall
never be ashamed"!!!!
