No results yet...I just have to share a minute...probably not "just a minute" but oh well...
This weekend I was kind of able to spend some quality time with my family!!! I cannot express to you how thankful I am for everyone! For the words of encouragement and PRAYER through text, cards, emails, in person...it seems I get them exactly when I really need them!!! God is so good, God is sooo good, God is soooo good, he's so good to me for putting you all in my life!!! I am just in complete AWE and so overwhelmed in the outpouring of sooooo many gathering in His name! It has really taken me back a bit!!! I cannot tell you how thankful I am!!!! I read EVERYTHING and I am sorry if I don't respond but I feel like words are not enough!!! BUT you do not know how much it means to me! Right after my tests I pulled out my phone and read the entire way to my car what everyone is "saying"- thank you Lord for not letting me trip on anything!!!! I have a minute before I go pick up my most precious one from his very first day EVER from preschool who has been with me since he was "woven together in the secret place"....so it's a little quiet, but won't be for long!!!! I went to this MRI, checked in, took my seat and pulled my Bible out of my purse - The Message version and thought ....what to read...I opened and usually I open it and look around a bit and then read...but I just thought well what's wrong with where I just opened it to....and this is what I read, Psalm 118:5-25 "Pushed to the wall, I called to God; from the wide open spaces, he answered. God's now at my side and I'm not afraid; who would dare lay a hand on me? God's my strong champion; I flick off my enemies like flies. Far better to take refuge in God than trust celebrities. Hemmed in by barbarians, in God's name I rubbed their faces in the dirt; Hemmed in and with no way out, in God's name I rubbed their faces in the dirt; Like swarming bees, like wild prairie fire, they hemmed me in; in God's name I rubbed their faces in the dirt. I was right on the cliff-edge, ready to fall, when God grabbed and held me. God's my strength, he's also my song, and now he's my salvation. Hear the shouts, hear the triumph songs in the camp of the saved? "The hand of God has turned the tide! The hand of God is raised in victory! The hand of God has turned the tide! I didn't die. I lived! And now I'm telling the world what God did. God tested me, he pushed me hard, but he didn't hand me over to Death. Swing wide the city gates- the righteous gates! I'll walk right through and thank God! This Temple Gate belongs to God so the victors can enter and praise. Thank you for responding to me; you've truly become my salvation. The stone the masons discarded as flawed is now the capstone! This is God's work. We rub our eyes - we can hardly believe it! This is the very day God acted- let's celebrate and be festive! Salvation now, God. Salvation now! Oh yes, God - a free and full life!" Psalm 118:5-25 So I must flick the barbarian(cancer) off of me and rub it into the dirt even if it has spread like a swarm of bees and/or wild prairie fire!!!! I have to be honest...I haven't been sure how I will handle it if the dr's tell me it has spread...It will not be fun to hear...but the God I serve is bigger than that and I pray it is His will that I will be healed!!!!! I just needed to share with you how AWESOME God is, not that you didn't know it already!!! Thanks for listening!!!!!!!!!
