This is it, my last treatment! This isn't how I pictured it. I expected it to be after a clean scan. It's a little bit scary, not being on chemo...but it's also very exciting. I want to be strong. I was worried that I wouldn't be feeling genuine joy today. I've been emotional and a little conflicted for a few days. But last night I sat on my back porch and had a good talk with Jesus, and today I have so much joy in my heart it might burst. I am so blessed! I have come SO far in these 5 1/2 months. In January...I walked into this place, a dying woman. Pain had become so much a part of my life, I forgot what it felt like to be without it. There is nothing but life in me today. There is no pain. There is no sickness. I will not be sitting around waiting for the tumors to grow...I'll be enjoying life and claiming my next scan will be clean, just like I did last time. While I'm not on chemo, I am still "on" the blood of Jesus. God is good! By His stripes, I am healed!
So Happy for you.! I think of you every single day , & all my prayers & comfort I send also. Enjoy this time & keep your strong love for Our most Powerful God. His plan is ALWAYS the most perfect plan. God Bless you & your loved ones.💞💞 🌷🌷🌷

DeleteDo not fear. Only believe. God's power is working in you,
ReplyDeleteI pray for you daily.
“Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:37-39

DeleteYou are looking good, sister!!!! I know either your or someone else has probably already referenced this, but I was in REI this morning, and the guy helping me had "Psalm 91" tattooed on his arm...and it made me think of you. I know we don't know each other, but I'm continuing to pray for your complete healing, girl!!!
ReplyDeletePsalm 91
1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.[a]
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
3 Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 “Because he[b] loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.”
Thank you so much for sharing Carole! You are awesome and I love this scripture!!
