It’s been a week since the routine mammogram was not quite routine. I am so blessed by the numbers of people who are praying for me. It is truly a humbling experience and I can never adequately thank them for their friendship and prayers. All I can do is continue to trust in the Lord and let Him have all the glory in this journey.

In the beginning, I called this a detour, but it’s not really. My path changed, but I can never go back to the original path. This has and will continue to change me. Hopefully leaving me better than the original path I was on.

I had some wonderful friends ask if they could pray over me. What a special time! One of them told me that God was leading her to anoint me with oil. I had never seen that done and was a little afraid of it, but I knew that I didn’t want to hinder God’s prompting in any way. It was truly one of the most humbling and unique experiences that I have ever had. There is no describing what it feels like to have someone read scripture and pray over you. It was beautiful and I thank God everyday for these friends.

We focused on the Mark 5:34 passage…”Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.” Wow…”your faith has healed you!” I am praying that my faith will endure, that God will give me the strength and grace I need to be a living testimony for Him.

Throughout the past week, this is what I know…that God is REAL and He has NEVER LET ME GO. I am clinging to those promises.

God’s Got This!
