Breathe Him In
Print ViewToday is a beautiful day! It's full of life all around me. Trees, grass, birds, a toad hopping over my lawn, even grasshoppers. The sky is clear blue, the sun is shining brightly. The very air smells of life. Life IS in the air!
Then why when I came in and checked my emails did I get that feeling in the pit of my stomach just reading the headings from a message on a webpage about ovarian cancer survivors where someone wrote about her doctor visit?
I've been keeping myself busy doing all the things I couldn't do when I was on chemo. And maybe I've been unconsciously avoiding my other website on ovarian cancer and those still in the midst of their battle. But I must always remember that "it" may never be gone and may show its ugly head once again.
But I have Life in me! Every day IS filled with hope! Breathe Him in!
To start your new day with Him, I share this video with you...

Have a wonderful weekend! Enjoy God! Breathe Him in!
Gloria, It is only natural that you will have a certain amount of concern and even fear in the back of your mind post cancer treatment. In some ways it is more difficult afterwards. Live in the joy of each day which I believe you are doing. Remember too God is in control of your life. That has been a big help to me post cancer treatment. Picture this you are covered by the everlasting arms of the almighty. The shadow of the possiblity of cancer recurrance is over the top of your head, but you are looking out into the sunshine of the Lord Jesus, and hence because of the sunshine of Jesus you hardly notice the shadow. I would say also get a hold of the book Finding the Light in Cancer's Shadow by Lynn Eib. It is a book about hope and facing fears after cancer treatments. It was a big help to be post treatment.
