Lately I have been feeling that God wants me to write my story of my life.I have many sad parts to my life and I want to find the nugget of gold in the mess.I was a lonley child growing up even though we were a large family and had extended family living with us.I was somehow alone in the world.I feel that way at times even yet.Last year was a huge test in my walk with God.I found out I had cancer and it was necessary to have surgery and radiation .I wanted to cry and be weak but I am old enough to know it was not good to even contemplate that behaviour in a hospital full of others who were very ill.I had a friend tell me to sing "We have a great big wonderful God"Honestly I didnt want to sing at all.I was wanting to feel sorry for myself.I determined to sing and read and praise as best I could.I will not say it was easy but I survived the ordeal last year and this year I am seeing that we do have a Great big wonderful God.I have been emotionally having a much better year and even was able to go on a great vacation to see the splendour of His handiwork.I know not everyone has the good result I do but I am grateful to be cancer free at the moment

Wow Fran,

That was brave of you to share from such a personal place! I have not faced cancer but have had surgery three times on the same disc. in my back all before my 45th birthday. As a result i have had many losses. One being my ministry position at my church were i was involved in many different areas.
It was the second dark-night of the soul for me as i struggled with confusion, loneliness and somewhat of an identity crisis.

It's been three years and so much has happened...i've changed! I have not come into the fulfillment of God's promises concerning my destiny yet, however, it doesn't somehow matter like it use to....I just need Him!

Your postings have blessed me! I'll be praying for you!
