God’s peace…
I saw this yesterday and the simple but amazing truth of this jumped off the page. How many times are we in a “storm” and we relate God’s peace to the storm ending. Over. Gone. The truth is even better. God’s peace comes sooner. Not at the end. Or even near the end. God’s peace…

My story…
My story. So many components. Some good. Some bad. Some great. Some not so great. But my story. My whole story – shows Jesus – what he can and will do. From saving me from wrong turns I’ve tried so hard to make in my life – through His presence on my journey through cancer.…

Brooks Was Here…
I’ve mentioned in a previous post that one of my all time favorite movies was Shawshank Redemption. Today I want to talk Brooks. Today I want to talk Red. First – Brooks. In the movie, a peaceable older man. In jail a long long time for a crime committed many years prior. Brooks became very…

Dear Debbie…
I do not fight alone. I do not cry alone. I do not trust Jesus alone. My journey is hard. I have numerous days I don’t feel well as I get farther into Chemo. I have an occasional day where I turn to Debbie and say “being strong is hard”. And the wonder. Two years…

Whatever…
Whatever. Whatever. Let me repeat. Whatever. Remember after 9/11, one phrase used so often was “The firefighters and policemen ran toward trouble.” As so many ran to escape – we revered the first responders that stayed true to their calling. Their mission. Whatever the trouble – first responders run to it while everyone else runs…

Worship song???
First, thank you for being patient this week. I love this blog. Sharing my story as I journey through Stage IV cancer with you. This week has been my toughest post-Chemo week yet. Your prayers were loved, felt and appreciated. Stepping away for a couple of days was hard but a must do. My amazing…

On your shoulders…
Where do you go when you need strength. Where do I go. We have a God that has all of the strength we need. All of it. And more. He is always ready, all we have to do is ask. Nothing. Not one single thing. Is beyond His power. He can. And will. Comfort. He…

Today I praise God because…
Today’s a hard day. As has been typical, the Sunday and Monday after my Thursday Chemo treatment are very tough days. Extreme exhaustion, mild nausea (shoutout her to Rebecca V for volunteering to let me use her “relief-band” – amazing) and just plain feeling really terrible. But, in the midst of all of this, still…

My story…your glory
From the start of my cancer journey I came up with and have used frequently – #mystoryforHisglory. I felt it shared my hope that as my cancer story developed that I would always use it as part of my story to always show what God has done and is doing for me. Then – Matthew…

A little more…A little less
Love, love this song. At a VIP experience earlier this year, I had the opportunity to tell Zach how much this song meant. To me. We often get caught up in being “me”. When we should want “a little more like “Jesus”, a little less like – me”. And it’s actually easy to do. Think…
