it's getting real

So many times in life, when the going gets tuff, it can feel like we are treading water. Simply trying to hang on to the life board. Earlier this week I thought I am fine as long as I don't look over the edge of the Wings that are carrying me. I am so thankful for the image in "Exodus 19:4 you yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself." The great unknown can be so easily accompanied by anxiety and fear. When I look back on my life Journey, so many times I can see God's faithfulness. Even now as we look ahead preparing for Car t therapy in Hamilton Ontario for my lymphoma, I can see God in the details. In the midst of the very hard he has placed so many truths in my heart that bring me great peace. Beautiful verses and hymns that I learned as a boy spring into my mind. We are so grateful for the over provision for our stay in Hamilton. We are so thankful that we have not had to self Advocate, but rather the direction from the doctors has been very obvious so far. This is something we have prayed a lot about, that it would be obvious. I am so thankful that in the midst of the hard, when I cry out I know my cries are being heard. We very much value your prayers during this very overwhelming time.
