New Pill

It has been very difficult to blog when the weather has been so nice! I want to update you on mom. Last week she started a new chemo pill. This is a clinical trail, she is 1 out of 150 people testing this new pill. It has been one week and so far so good! Her blood work came back great today and she has had no side effects.

Mom planted her garden and it's looking great, her radishes are coming up already. It has been a beautiful sight watching her go outside and breath in the fresh air! To see her smiling and enjoying the warm weather has been special for both of us.

Lucky has been enjoying the good weather too, as he is always trying to get outside now!

I praise God that He has healed my mother and I would praise Him even if that wasn't the outcome. Our life is literally in His hands. We have no control even if we tried. It's an awesome feeling to give your life over to Him completely. What peace and joy He brings. I was not made for this world but for eternity and when I came to understand that my purpose was not for the here and now but for eternity; God began to change my heart. This world is a vapor, a flash before our eyes...gone in a blink! This moment we have here on earth determines our everlasting future with Jesus. (or without Him) What we do now in this very short time matters. We can either summit on our own accord or that will be done for us on the day Christ returns.

Romans 14:11 It is written:
'As surely as I live,' says the Lord,
'every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will confess to God that Jesus Christ is Lord.'

I pray that you would decide today, right now to cling to what is good, our Lord and Savior Jesus. Allow God to begin a good work in you for His Kingdom, for His purpose, for His glory.

Mom's Surprise Birthday Party

Thanks to everyone who attended moms surprise birthday party and everyone who wished her well for her birthday. It was a very special day!

As I was planning for this party, I was thinking it would probably be her last birthday... I wanted to give everyone a chance to spend time with her and shower her with love. But not only did we celebrate her life; but we gave thanks and honor to the Father for His many blessings and His healing in my mother’s life. It was truly a day to rejoice! I don’t know how many more birthdays mom will celebrate here on earth but I do know for now God has granted us more time together! Thank you Jesus!
