Here is the latest video vlog from my last chemotherapy session, Thursday, 8/31.

Please pray for my foot infection.  It is day three and I still cannot put my foot down without pain when I walk, so I am limping around and putting too much pressure on the heel.  But God is great! He is still on the throne and He is sovereign.  I praise him and worship him no matter the circumstances.  The devil may be trying to swipe me off my feet, literally, but God is still blessing me and healing me. He is Lord over everything.  I am happy.  I am alive.  I have a God who loves me.  I have an amazing husband who takes care of me.  I have a healthy, happy, son.  And I could go on and on about all the good things in my life.  In fact, it’s what I do when the enemy tries to get me down. I remind him of all that God has done for me.  First and foremost, He gave the life of his only son so that I would have eternal life.

 

I highly recommend going through your gratitude list when you feel life trying to bring you down. The thing is darkness cannot dwell where there is light.   As soon as you shed light on a dark problem by speaking all that is good, the darkness dispels.  Try it.  When you feel down or worried say, “I do not receive this problem/worry about…because God has been so good to me.  Lord Jesus, thank you for the pillow on my bed that I have to rest my head…” and go on from there, for as long as you need to.  Before you know it, the worry is replaced with God’s goodness and you can go back to bed. Remember to declare that you “do not receive” whatever negativity is on your mind.

 

If that doesn’t work, worship the Lord in prayer and in song.  This morning, Noah was fussy from an upset tummy and my limping was not making our life any easier, but the Lord but a song in my heart and I played it and sang it to Noah and the Lord’s spirit was poured out over us and His love saturated the atmosphere and we both fell back to sleep.

 

This is the song the Lord put on my heart his morning.  It’s called “Jesus, Lover of My Soul.”

 

“Jesus, Lover of My Soul.”

Jesus, I will never let You go,

You’ve taken me from the miry clay,

You’ve set my feet upon a rock,

And now I know,

I love you (I love you)

I need you (I need you)

Though my world may fall (though my world may fall)

I’ll never let you go

My Savior (My Savior)

My closest friend

I will worship You Unitl the very end)”

 

I pray you are all blessed toady with the Lord’s spirit.  I pray that His prescence satuates whatever dark areas in your life are in need of His love and His light.  I pray that you allow Him to dispel the darkness with gratitude for all He has done in the past for you and all that He will do for you in the future.

 

And here is a link to another great song for those times when you need more…

 

I Need You More by Kim Walker-Smith

“I need you more, more than yesterday
I need you more, more than words can say.
I need you more, than ever before
I need you, Lord, I need you, Lord.

More than the air I breathe, more than the song I sing
More than the next heartbeat, more than anything.
And lord, as this time goes by, I’ll be by your side
Cause I never want to go back to my old life.”

 

In love and faith in Jesus Christ,
