I had lunch this last week with a friend I had not seen since my treatment started back in February. She was so encouraged to see me. It was great for me to re count all that God has done for me these past 6 months. It reminded me that I was in God's hands and I needed to TRUST HIM.
I had told her that I have my "antenna's up" looking for opportunities to share God's peace, faithfulness and Love. When we hugged goodbye she said.."keep those antenna's up God is going to use you for His Glory." That rang over and over in my mind and I have been claiming it every day.
It has been amazing the people God has brought for me to share with. The guy I called off the Internet to clean my vents turned out to be an old friend who had recently rededicated his life to the Lord. My cleaning guy in Sunriver knocked on my door yesterday, my massage therapist, acupuncture Dr, manicurist, work friends, furniture salesman. Meeting new friends tonight, totally unplanned, God gave me the chance to share. "Random" you say...no way, God!! I pray that this experience brings people to Him in a new way, encourages people, blesses them and reminds them that God is still doing miracles, He is faithful and wants us to reach beyond our comfort zone to share His Love..
I have been given 3 more months of tarceva, the oral chemo pill. I am doing well on the treatment. I have learned how to manage the side effects pretty well. I see the Dr. on September 20th. My last blog I spoke of the mass as a "deflated balloon." Please keep praying and lets watch God melt it totally away...!!
