MC #79 Loss but found!

September 21st, 2008 by micharlie

This was a post that I never got up and is a bit old, but will be good as always!
CHATCHING UP!
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. - 2 Corinthians 1:2 - (NIV)

I should begin with a shout out to ever one who has sent e-mails, cards, letters, and phoned. I thank God each day for each and every one of you!

Our living God has been working over time on my behalf! As I prepare to start round three of chemo I have not been sick from the chemo. I did have a bout of dehydration, which I do not want to do again I pray, I’m getting to old for amusement park rides, especially when it is only the feeling you get when riding them!

Back on May 18th when the doctor told me of the masses in my lung I once again gave it to our Lord, for His will to be done, and the strength to accept what He had in store for me! When the biopsy showed that it is small cell lung cancer, which is a fast growing type, and was in the lymph nodes, I really lifted it to the Lord! After meeting the cancer doctor I was not going to do anything as far as treatment; back in 1982 when I had cancer the first time, I had made up my mind that chemo and radiation where something that I would not endure! I had worked with too many cancer patients and seen first hand the side effects that reduced the quality of life they had, many lived four or five months, sick and unable to do anything for them self’s and out of it due to the pain medicines they were on, only to die anyway! I can not do a whole lot, but still I am able to do some stuff with my grand kids!

The night after meeting with the doctor and telling him I would not do chemo, a calm came over me, it was as if God was telling me to take the chemo, as He was with me!

Sherry shared with me a passage written by Jeremiah talking to the Babylonian’s – Jeremiah 29:10 – 13 which is as true today as when it was written so many years ago -

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

God has a plan for each of us and will be with us always if we “call upon Him and pray to Him”, we must also stop and listen for His answer! It has taken me a long time to learn to stop and listen and not try to do it on my own, as I am weak, but God is strong, the rock that I have built the foundation of my faith on.

2 Corinthians 1:3 – 7 -Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 5 For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. 6 If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7 And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.

It is so true for me God is my comforter and will get me through this trial! If you have a trial lay it at the cross of Jesus and give it to God, He can be your rock also! Thanks for all the prayers, cards and calls, as the above passage tells us my “comfort overflows!”

On Tuesday July 8, I start round three of chemo, which is working as the masses are get smaller (the big one is .7cm or ¾ inch for us non metric types and the smaller one is .4cm or ¼ inch), Praise be to God. He will bring me thought this round also I am sure! The doctor tells us that this is a good sign and the prognosis is good for getting it in remission!

At church I was asked “What are you, The Energy Bunny?” To which I replayed, “No better, I am charge with the Holy Sprit of the one true God, which has the power to over come all!”God Bless each and everyone of you,

Charlie
