Faith 4 Triumph

Today is Sunday . What a wonderful day indeed. We spent the morning at church, it was a blessing all around. I spent time talking with ladies from the small group that I attended.It’s always good to see them because it’s been awhile for me. I did not get to finish the last group meeting because I was hospitalized before they finished.

The weather here today is still very hot it’s about 94 degrees as of now. It’s perfect for a big bowl of ice cream , maybe later. 🙂

I want to take this time to thank all of you for your comments and encouragement through out this period in my life, it means so much to me. It let’s me know that I am not alone in this battle, you are all there cheering me on with prayers and words from the Lord. I am surrounded by lots of love and prayers.

After church I came home and had lunch and took a long nap. Now I am writing and watching college track and field , trying to think about dinner.

It’s starting to rain and we have finished dinner. You now how one gets after eating. 🙂 I feel lazy, with the rain just want to curl up with a good read and relax. Have a good night , I pray the good Lord will be watching over us all as we sleep. By the way I did have that ice cream but not much just enough for a child. 🙂

I started this last night and did not post it. Another day has started .I give thanks to God. It’s still very hot and raining . Let us all be thankful for this day and all the many blessing coming our way. The scripture for today ( Matthew 19:26 ). But Jesus looked at them and said, With men this is impossible, but all things are possible with God.

Another day, in God I trust. What a wonderful and blessed day. I went out shopping it’s so hot but no complaints from me. Five months ago I was lying flat on my back from spine surgery for cancer. The Lord was my comforter  therefore, I did not complain then and I will not now. Everything that comes to each and everyone of us is meant to be. Weather, rain, snow or sunshine, it’s all given by God.

Since being diagnosed with cancer, I have looked at things in my life differently. The world around me has become smaller, the joy of watching Gods animals and enjoying His weather is a highlight for today. This has increased my faith even more then it was before. From now on, I will try to look back without regrets but to do better with what I am given each day. Our load might seem heavy at times but we are not carrying it alone. There are signs all around us to let us know we are not alone. If  we only open our eyes and heart to truly believe in Jesus ‘power and truth.

Last night my husband picked blueberries from the garden. I was watching the birds sitting on the fence, they were also watching, saying  there goes my dinner. 🙂 As a child I picked my share of blueberries and always thought I was taking food from the birds and other animals that depended on them.

I love watching birds fly around the open field. It reminds me of our son and how much he loves birds and other animals. I remembered he would take milk  from the house to feed the neighbors cat. I wonder where the milk was going, until lately he told me that he would feed them late at night before he went to bed. Boy did I laugh. 🙂 Now we have bird feeders in our yard, however they still want my blueberries. 🙂 Let us respect Gods creatures and marvel at them.

I try to remember God knew our destiny while we were in our mothers womb. I will not question God or ask why. My faith and strength will carry me through. God is my rock and shield, I stand on solid ground with him.

Scripture for today (John 6:48). I am the bread of life.

It’s good to know Jesus is our bread of life. Let each of us that are reading this keep the faith and be thankful to the Lord for all we have, he will supply our needs.

I will start my day with thank to God. His blessings are all around me at times I cannot see. So, this teaches me to be still and listen.  Looking back over the last few days and my life, I know he is watching over me. Thanks to all my family who posted comments and for their prayers. I am so blessed to have them in my life.

Waking up this morning and giving thanks for the beginning of a new day is another blessing. Sitting outside listing to the wind and watching the birds, thinking how awesome God really is.

I am feeling great today, I had a c-scan yesterday and it went well but if anyone has had one done you know the feeling of the needle and the dye it’s not a good feeling (eek). Now it waiting for the results. That I leave in the hands of the Lord because I know He has his hands on me.

My niece is coming to cook for us today, she comes ever other week to give us a hand and cook meals for a few days. We are so thankful for her. But we look forward to eating her food. 🙂

After finishing this I will get into my bible reading, oh I forgot to turn on my waterfall but first the bible reading.

The scripture to  day is ( Psalm 18:6 ). In my distress I call to the Lord; I cried to my God for help. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came before him, into his ears.

Today is a beautiful one. I love the sunshine but cannot stay out in it to long. It’s good for our garden and the berries we have planted. Also very good for the leg pain I had yesterday. I am sitting here listening to the beautiful waterfall my son purchased last  Christmas. The sound is so calming and relaxing.

Speaking to my family last night and today lifted my spirits and makes me laugh. We have so much fun laughing about our childhood memories. We always end our conversation with praising the Lord.

Living with cancer I like  to keep centered in my belief in the Lord. I also try to memorize different scripture verses that helps  me a lot.

So, for all of us living with cancer or any other diseases, let be strong and stay anchored  in out faith.

This is the scripture verse I picked for today  (Psalm 34:7). The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.

This  is my new beginning. I am the 4th sister from a large family and three of us have been diagnosed with cancer along with one brother. All four of us have different types of cancer. I was diagnosed with leiamyasarcoma which i have gone through radiation and chemotherapy for. Some days are better then others, like today I had lots of pain in both of my knees and legs but life goes on.

Through out this fight I will always put God first and continue to count my many blessing. This has been going on for about two years now and I am always praying for a miracle from  God. My faith is strong and so is my will. I have a good support system from a wonderful husband and son plus other family members near and far.

I  start and end my days with prayer and bible reading it helps to relax me and keep  me calm. I will try to end with this passage from [Proverb 16:20] Whoso trusteth in the Lord, happy is he.
