    I am so sorry to hear about Lisa. I will be praying for her that God will lay his healing hand on her. I feel so for her..I know it is all of our worst fear. I wanted to ask you all to be in prayer for me. I go Thursday the 13th for a double mastectomy. I am so scared. I know God will take care of me, but I am only human.....I have fears. Please pray that all goes well and for God to guide my dr.s to make all the right decisions.

    Thank you so much ladies.

     I Love You, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress

    and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is

    my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. Psalms 18 1-2

    God is so good, reading through this thread I am reminded of that fact.  Life gets really hard, but God always remains good.  He doesn't change just because we are faced with all the crap bc brings to our lives.  I always imagine Jesus walking with me or sitting with me and holding my hand.  Lord I pray for Susan as she is going into surgery on Thursday.  I call out the spirit of fear she is feeling, I know that does not come from you.  I pray she will feel your presence as she is being wheeled into the operating room and the moment she wakes up from surgery.   I pray her drs. will have your guidence and wisdom during her operation.  I pray they will take exactly what they need to and not one cell more.  I pray that they will not leave anything that will come back in the future.  I pray for a quick recovery.  On a side note Susan - ask your surgeon for a pain buster.  It is a small tube with drip holes that dispenses a local anithesia(sorry about the spelling, it's late and I do have chemo brain) right to your incision.  I had one for my second mastectomy this summer and it was fantastic.  I didn't need as many drugs and I healed much faster.  I always imagine Jesus holding my hand when I'm going into surgery or getting an MRI, it really calms me down.

    This morning I woke up about 5am and the birds were singing so loudly and they sounded wonderful. As I listened, I kept thinking about little blessings I learned as a child, which goes like this: Thank you for the food we eat; Thank you for the friends we meet; Thank you for the birds that sing; Thank you God for everything. AMEN  From the book  FINDING THE CAN IN CANCER

     Genia and Friends, We have a very special God that is there all the time. I just spoke to a friend that finds out about her breast cancer tomorrow. So please pray for her, I thought of all the things I should be grateful for, Because I have had a long week too. But when I heard for my friend. I said THANKYOU LORD!   I am very blessed. ...................Oh Lord  Help us to see the goodness of each person here and how lucky we are for each day we have. Bless all those that need Your help at this time or need to be reminded they are loved. Lord help us to nurture the faith we have,  allowing us to get strength and help as we rejoice in the good thing of You Lord. AMEN

    Dear Heavenly Father, I know I am trying very hard to walk by faith. I am standing on your word by your stripes we were healed. I ask you to bless each of us in our battles. I know you allow this for a reason to bring you glory. There is so many here who battle bc and many with mets like me and I know you are still doing miracles. Lord I know you tell me not to worry and I do try to not but I struggle with that. Lord you know I am greatly troubled about the test my son is having and possible surgery he may face. Lord my heart is heavy and yes worries for him. He is my youngest son who is in the  military many miles from home. You are across the ocean and the miles with him. Lord I ask for his healing . I love him so and I am constantly praying for him .I ask you Lord to let me know he will be alright. You are my Jehovah Jirah My Provider. Praise you and thank you for the good report to come I claim it for him.AMEN
