Breaking the Surface

No automatic alt text available.


Just saw this old recipe in my book! I can hardly believe that my "precious moments" birthday girl will have her own 3 year old in a few months!!! "The days are long but the years are so short!"
I had a positive doctor visit yesterday for which I am so grateful. Once again I'm in partial remission. I shouldn't have to think about that word "cancer" for at least 3 months. Riiiiiight . I have to be honest and say that there are many many moments when the seriousness of this 
diagnosis overtakes me. I rebel against the death sentence hanging over my head! And yet, just as many times Jerry reminds me that ALL humans have that same death sentence. Those of us living with health issues are just more aware of it. I know I am healed. But the time and how is in God's hands.
Today, I'm thanking God for those crazy years with my adorable children, for the years to see them reach for Him and follow their dreams. And I pray, as Hezekiah did, for many more years on this earth. I want to be a present Grams!

But I'm so SO thankful to know that I know that I know that this life is just the title page of a glorious book yet to be written. Some day I will break the surface of the water and with a gasp take my first pure, eternal breath! And I'll brush the water from my eyes and gaze in wonder and amazement at my new home prepared for me and the One who made the way where there was no way. Thank You, Jesus!
