Cancer

Over the Thanksgiving hoiliday I learned that a friend of mine from High School was diagnosed with cancer. My heart broke and it brought back memories of when my first born at 15 months of age was diagnosed with retinoblastoma, a rare eye cancer. The fear, the panic and the helplessness of knowing that there was absolutely nothing I could do to fix it...that it was beyond and out of my control still haunt me today. The lessons I learned I will never forget...the special quaility time spent with my "Poppa" God... precious. I have learned over the years that our circumstances can make us or break us and I try to choose for them to make me more into the image of Jesus. I am asking that whoever reads this post to please pray for my precious friend, Amy. There is not a day that goes by that I don't pray for her and think back to my experience with cancer and how good God was in sending people my way to be His hands, feet and voice. The prayers that went up over all the world on our behalf...I am asking for the same for my friend. God is good and faithful and He has promised to be with her and her family through this valley. He is getting ready to do something big in her life...please pray for strength and perserverance for her and her family and for wisdom and discernment for the doctors, nurses etc. who will be attending her. May God bless you for interceding for her.

P.S. If you would like to know more about Amy please go to her blog...again prayers are greatly appreciated....blessings....
