I want to let you all know something - why I post about this journey with cancer. From the day I was diagnosed, I felt like God was giving me such comfort and peace and direction, and that He was saying "This isn't about just you, and it's not just about cancer. It's about trusting in Me."
And that is why I share what is happening in my life with my Facebook friends. Not because I am so unique (statistics show that millions of people are diagnosed with cancer every year) or because I want sympathy - I am blessed beyond measure! But I am learning more every day about the value and importance of committing our day, whatever it looks like, to God, and about truly believing that HE will use our circumstances for His glory. It is the best lesson I have ever learned, and I am continuing to learn more every day!
I read this today and had to share it. Attitude + confidence in the goodness of God = unstoppable power!! smile emoticon
"Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitude toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it.
I believe the single most significant decision I can make on a day-to-day basis is my choice of attitude. It is more important than my past, my education, my bankroll, my successes or failures, fame or pain, what other people think of me or say about me, my circumstances, or my position. Attitude keeps me going or cripples my progress. It alone fuels my fire or assaults my hope. When my attitudes are right, there's no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for me." Chuck Swindoll
