Having gone through cancer, I can relate to the ups and downs and exhaustion, and the worst, at times, the not knowing. The thing it forces upon one is to take life minute by minute, and trust God in that moment. Your perspective definitely changes. I am praying for you, dear, and your husband, and family. I&#39;m so sorry that I wasn&#39;t here sooner, and I will faithfully pray now. God is with you and He is enough.<br />It is so good that you are recording God&#39;s faithfulness during all this.<br />WendyWendyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08230575436747893912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010918693758511304.post-57597162783565291442009-10-19T04:11:50.071-07:002009-10-19T04:11:50.071-07:00It is so encouraging to read these posts. Stay strong and know I will keep praying for you and your family.<br /><br />The Lord led me to Extravagent Grace a couple weeks ago in the middle of some of the greatest chaos I&#39;ve experienced. Spiritual, physical, emotional- work, home, son&#39;s school- it was all slamming hard. Reading this, along with daily prayer and keeping focused on God&#39;s great Love and plan keep me going (sometimes stronger than others.)<br />God Bless all of you,<br />MaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010918693758511304.post-29253490754081572852009-10-19T03:28:15.183-07:002009-10-19T03:28:15.183-07:00You will be in my prayers today, Lisa. The Lord woke me up early today with the heaviness of others&#39; lives on my heart and mind ... and my own crept in there, too. I will pray for divine enablement for you to be who He calls you to be for today in the midst of this long and tiring trial. <br /><br />Peace to you for today -Julie@comehaveapeacehttp://www.comehaveapeace.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010918693758511304.post-1241698995798264842009-10-18T15:24:41.819-07:002009-10-18T15:24:41.819-07:00God bless you dear one, praying for you, and your family.

You and your family are in my prayers. It&#39;s amazing to me how in the midst of this circumstance, you are keeping your eyes fixed on Christ, when I know that is not easy. He sees and knows your heart and I can only imagine how proud of you He is -- you certainly do have a testimony of His grace written all over your life. <br /><br />You have greatly encouraged me today to look for Christ in the midst of uncertainty and pain. <br /><br />Blessings in Christ,<br />SnoWhiteSnoWhitehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12939257456903076156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010918693758511304.post-69045958057664871732009-10-18T07:37:29.842-07:002009-10-18T07:37:29.842-07:00Lisa,<br />I am praying for your family. I&#39;ve been there where one visit from the doctor changes everything. My husband was diagonized with colon cancer one month after we buried his father with lung cancer. We came home with the thought we were losing him too. But God....hear those words....BUT GOD...is in control, He surrounds you with His wings, He is the great healer. He has already given you a way to find His blessings every day...keep it up. While you are waiting...you&#39;re being prayed over.Deborahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16998499719314681050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010918693758511304.post-12106772904676873392009-10-18T07:35:19.297-07:002009-10-18T07:35:19.297-07:00I most definitely needed to read this.Tabitha@ichooseblisshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12739277353441815262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010918693758511304.post-12917658802995778962009-10-18T06:37:06.755-07:002009-10-18T06:37:06.755-07:00I&#39;ve realized for some time now that I was not called to an easy life. But I certainly want it to be purposeful. I love how you wrote what was happening each day and then captured God&#39;s provision. What a wonderful way to put things into proper perspective. It&#39;s way too easy to get stuck in the difficult situation.<br /><br />I&#39;m learning to lay it ALL down before the Lord. The lesson has been to not pick it up again and again. As I trust Him moment by moment I don&#39;t need to be all stressed out. <br /><br />My flesh has been so strong and capable in the past. I think my current situation though is way too much for my flesh and the Lord is teaching me to abide in Him. As I die to self, He can work in me and through me for His purposes. And that is the desire of my heart.<br /><br />Thank you for this timely post.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />DebbieDebbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08235978883396499354noreply@blogger.com
