One Miracle At A Time

I truly don't know where to start.

Since my diagnosis in September of Stage 4 Bone Cancer my life has been on the biggest roller coaster ever.  I have gone as deep as one can go (or did I?) and yet now I am experiencing daily miracles that make me want to shout from the housetops what an incredible God I have.

I guess it will have to be written down in my book someday....a work in progress for the last 7 years...sigh.  But I have a feeling I will also be sharing, no....take that back; YES I will be taking every opportunity to share verbally with ANYONE who will listen!  

In the Lord's language (Hebrew) there is no word for 'coincidence'....and my life proves that out over and over.  The people, the mail, the exact timing of events, etc. etc. that have shown He is in complete control of my life's moments is OVERWHELMING and I just so wish I had a camera like that movie TRUMAN that could show it happening live for all of you to see!

I am not saying that the medical community has not been a welcome added help for sure, and I am so grateful for my home nurse Paula, my primary doc Janine Kasch, and the hospital staff that literally saved me from drowning in cancer fluid filling my abdomen.  The wisdom God has given men to help with pain and healing is still part of my daily regime and I am very, very grateful.

It has not all been GLORY HALLELUJAH time....I indeed went through some serious hell, torment, pain, fear, all the garbage the devil attempts to wear you down and make you quit.  But this I KNOW:  the prayers of the warriors who backed me up when I was in those trenches is what brought me through!!!!   One particular afternoon I was in so much pain all I could do was scream outloud in worship songs over and over, while my big sister visiting from Tennessee did serious warfare with the enemy, holding me and not stopping til we both pretty much collapsed on the bed.  BUT WE WON.  I slept after that, peacefully.    I will share another Gethsemene day at another time, perhaps, but know that my precious Jesus was there as well, and things began to change.

Of all I have read, a stage 4 patient consistently declines rather fast, and has about 6 months to survive.  Hmmmm, nope.  Obviously God has other plans for me and I am doing all I can to LISTEN SO CAREFULLY to His voice daily on this battlefield.  Yes, it is still a fight, a war, but as I said in an earlier post, it is a FIXED FIGHT won over 2000 years ago.

I like what I heard Laurie Crouch say on TBN the other night about how until Calvary, God's people were in a good vs. evil situation.....and then Jesus said I HAVE ALL AUTHORITY, AND NOW I GIVE IT TO YOU MY BELIEVERS.....sooooo, that means how much power does the enemy really have now? NONE....he can only LIE.  As the saying goes:F.E.A.R. means "false evidence appearing real".
Oh devil, your time is coming to an end soon!!!

I'll end this blog with a quick physical report.  My energy level is growing each day (as long as I only do what I should....spirit of stupid took me out and fell down some steps couple days ago but besides a sore elbow I'm fine, sigh).  I can do my own hair, even cleaned the kitchen myself yesterday!  I can climb my stairs to my bedroom without a breathing break now.  My blood pressure is normal; I sleep 8 to 9 hours without waking EACH NIGHT;  my pain is next to nil and meds are much farther apart; I can eat anything I want in moderation with NO REPURCUSSIONS; my weight has completely leveled off....haven't been this size since high school, although my senior skin will take some serious work after I'm 100% again.  I'm going to keep my hair long as its easier to manage, and I've never had long hair! I'll just have to get creative....  Sooo, you can see I am getting my miracle one day at a time, and I am so so so so blessed and amazed at the grace my Jesus is bestowing on me.

Please know I pray EVERY SINGLE NIGHT as I  lay my head on my pillow for my dear friends Ronnie Land, Sherry Dimov and others who are also in this fight for strength and supernatural peace while they wait on their miracle.  One day soon all this will be over....King Jesus will reign and there will be no sickness, no pain, no death, ......just eternity to breath in all His love with all our family and friends---YOU'LL BE THERE, RIGHT?

Love to all....and a prosperous 2017 in every way!
