My daughter "cringes" when I say,
"Breast Cancer...Was a BLESSING!"
The Treatment...Harsh!
I KNOW...
It will take MY LIFETIME...
To "HEAL"...
Emotionally.
But...YES!
It's been a BLESSING!
I've been FORCED, to LEARN,
Some "HARD" Lessons.
One Being...
LIFE...
Isn't about the Planning.
But, about the LIVING...
One Day,
One Step,
One Moment...
At a Time!
Cancer,
FORCES You.
To FACE,
The INEVITABILITY...Of Death...
HEAD ON!
And, IF you...
S-U-R-V-I-V-E...
You RECEIVE...God's BLESSING...
Of GRACE.
The "things"...Of this World,
That you THOUGHT Mattered.
Career...Wealth...Status...Possessions.
You LEARN...
Really...Don't...Hold...ANY...Value...
AT ALL!
Lesson Two,
I NO LONGER NEED...
The "fanciest" Car,
The most "prestigious" Job.
I...HAVE... LEARNED!
Just HAVING...
A Car,
A Job,
IS ENOUGH!
That's what Cancer..
.
Teaches YOU.
That just having...
The NECESSITIES...
Are ENOUGH!
Lesson Three...
The ONLY "things"...
I NEED...
IN ABUNDANCE...
GOD'S LOVE...
FAMILY...
FRIENDSHIP...
And, a LIFE...
Filled...With...JOY!
That Is,
ENOUGH...
FOR ME!
Until Next Time...
"Though you do not see Him, Yet Believing, you REJOICE with JOY Inexpressible"
1 Peter 1:8
