December 14, 2014 - Two Steps Forward, One Step Back

It's been so great to be out more this week, getting to catch up with people!

I am feeling better all the time, but as one of my doctors told me, the journey is not always forward; there are a few steps back. After a great week, I am absolutely worn out and everything seems to take more energy than I have at the moment. Nothing is wrong - I just need to rest a little, and that is ok!  

This week will be big - we go back to the oncologist on Thursday afternoon and will find out whether I need to do chemo, and if no chemo, what the long-term med plan will be. I also have two other doctor appointments, on Monday and Wednesday.  Please pray for good results, and for patience with all the doctor stuff - there are many things I would rather be doing than sitting at doctors' offices this week!  

So thankful for God's steadfast love, especially on the days when I think I should be back to normal, and when I am tired of the journey. Thank you for your prayers for us!

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the LORD and turn away from evil. Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones. (Proverbs 3:5-8 NLT)

You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. (Isaiah 26:3 NKJV)
