Hello again!
Snow on the mountains in front of me but at least the rain has stopped.
Thank you Joan. I think the treatment now is a standard treatment and I just have to remember now to take the tablets :innocent:
Jen, I hope you had a great holiday. I think in a short while I will begin looking forward to mine and coming back to the UK.
Jen, without my faith, I do not know how I would have gotten through the many challenges cancer brings. Psalm 23 has been with me throughout and as I said in the beginning, I have never asked for healing. I have asked for the strength, courage and focus to deal with what has been before me......and He has given that to me at every stage of my race.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
I have never felt fear, I have never felt sorry for myself and I have known that the lessons I learn along the way will at some stage be used for His purpose.
Jen, I cannot imagine what it must be like to be diagnosed with a life threatening illness, to go through the treatment and not have faith? I would fear the dark place that the situation would open.
For me, I have had love, laughter, support, and all the resources I have needed. I have had total abundance of what ever I have needed and that only comes from our Lord. We know He sends His army of angels to walk through the valley with us. We know in the worst times He is there. We know that He stands at the other side of the valley encouraging us onwards having walked the route Himself.
I can honestly testify the He has been my rod and my staff throughout!!
