Christmas is 5 days from now and I am getting so anxious! I am anxious to see my kids' faces in the morning, to see family, to eat great food and sing to Happy Birthday to Jesus!
This year has been an amazing year for me! Nothing great or significant has happened except that I have a sense of peace about everything that happens in my life...good and bad! I believe everything good and bad is what God has planned for me. When times are hard I always just think of people who are worse off than me... that always puts it back in perspective for me! God will always give me what I need and he will never give me more than I can handle! He may not always give me what I want and I am happy to say I am ok with that :) This sentence alone brings me to the title of my post!
It is all too cheesy, but I wish more than anything God would grant us with a cure for the awful poison... known as cancer! My wonderful Uncle has been dealing with cancer for a couple of years now. I hear he is in good spirits and doing ok, but I know my family is full of worry, sadness and fear. I wish for my Uncle to feel good inside and out everyday. I wish for him to be able to walk into the doctors office and for them to say you are CURED. I wish for him to have the energy to live his life the way he used to. I wish for him to not have to endure one more second of radiation or chemo. I wish, I wish, I wish! I can wish all I want, but I don't think a genie is going to be popping out of a bottle anytime soon to grant me these! So I pray! I pray everyday for my Uncle, his children and my family. I pray for a Christmas miracle! Please join me in prayer for my Uncle... pray for his health to be restored, cancer to be gone, for the Lord to give them all the strength to deal with everything, for them to have faith in the Lords plan, for all of them to enjoy everyday they have with one another, for the Lord to carry all of the fears and worries!
I wish for my Uncles family that you all have a very Merry Christmas. I love you all and hope you know I am always thinking of you guys!
"And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective."
James 5:15-16

Prayer is so powerful. I witnessed my mother's own healing of cancer after her doc said you are terminal and I'll see you back in a few months when it hits again. That was almost 3 yrs ago and she is still cancer free. I'll keep you uncle and the your family in my prayers
