I haven't "blogged" in a couple of days. Chemo Friday was pretty rough so I have laid low since then. I missed a fantastic service this morning at church. We are celebrating along with our Jewish families the Feast of Tabernacles. So this morning was Jewish music and dancing! (Watch the service at mariettachurchofgod.org Click on "Resources," then PM services (by date). My dear sister, Oleta, just visited me and brought me a souvenier from "The Holy Land Experience" in Orlando. She and I have plans to go to Israel. Our Jewish lectureer says not to plan to go in 2010 as Israel will attack Iran. Don't think I want to be there then!
This old world is so full of troubles, pain and torment. Every family that I know has been touched by cancer. I never thought it would be me, though. That's one leg of my journey for which there was no warning nor practice. If we would let ourselves we could get discouraged. But inspite of all the battles of life that we face, God is good! And one day we will see Jesus. The old song says, "It will be worth it all when we see Jesus. The trials of life so small when we see Him. One glimpse of His dear face all sorrow will erase. So bravely run the race till we see Him." This crazy world is not my home; I'm just a passin' through. My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue.
Thank you, Lord for the promise of a home in Heaven with you!
