Hello friends, I pray you're all well and ready for this weekend. I've been going back and forth with tests and procedures and more to still come.
My mind and continued thoughts have been focused on my brother, he was told that he has "stage 3 Bone Marrow Cancer"... OMG! He has been going for chemo and has a road to travel still. He has a very good outlook and that is a Very Good place to be in!
I pray all the time, I've even asked God to heal him and let me take this, he is 50 and has two children that are young. He has been an incredible role model, a fabulous father and an awesome husband! Praise God!!
Every year for the past 13 yrs. he has been involved with the "Macy's Thanksgiving Parade" as a balloon handler! He has loved every bit of it! He had to let Macy's know that this year he will not be in the Parade! Corporate balloon team was very kind and sad to hear of his illness! They were kind to say that if he can make it next year his spot will be saved for him! Amen! Thank You God!!
Our Mother died when she was 52 yrs old with Cancer, and this is the month of "Breast Cancer Awareness" month and that is the month he was told of this bone marrow cancer. Our brother died in the month of May which is "ALS awareness month"! He had ALS! He lived with ALS for two years, then passed away, May 6, 2012. We all miss Rusty so much!
Strength & courage is something with in you; that comes up and out loud and clear when you are faced with life threatening events. I know when I had to wait a month to have a double mastectomy back in 2012; it took me all that month to go through my head as a woman to under go such a terrible loss... of which I really didn't have a support system in check nor did I have my family around.
But, I knew I had Jesus! I read that Bible over and over again, I watched Joel Osteen over and over again, I watched T.D. Jakes over and over again! Praise God, my strength & courage came out in full armor! Amen!
I feel my brother's strength & courage come out strong, he has his armor on! I know he is fighting this battle but he is not alone!! He has the blood of Jesus run through his veins! Amen! thank you Jesus!
The Resurrecting King, is Resurrecting Me! I love this song! Keeps me in God's arms!
Do you know this song? Resurrecting? Elevation Worship sings it on You Tube! It will give you strength & courage! I encourage you to listen to it and rejoice in the Lord! I pray for you all and wish you much love!
Until I write again, God Bless you all! May Peace find you!
