Forty-Five Verses: 31 Days of Pink: The Answers I Needed (and still do) Repost

Hey there! This is a "Repost" from October 2, 2014 from the "31 Days of Pink" series....

 "For the kingdom of God is not a matter or talk but of power." I Corinthians 4:20

One of my morning "quiet times" with the Lord at the Lake
I had many questions, 

but all of the answers are found in God's word, 

the Bible.

Who will help me get through this?
"For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory." Deuteronomy 20:4

What do can I do, this seems like too much?
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding, in all your ways, acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6

When will this be over or get easier?
"The LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore." Psalm 121:8

Where will I find the strength to keep going?
"The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights." Habakuk 3:19

How can I possibly do this for treatment for  a year or longer?
"Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit," says the LORD Almighty." Zechariah 4:6

Day three, I dedicate this post to Silvia Camata, breast cancer survivor of eleven years! Silvia and I share almost the same story, she was diagnosed at thirty-eight with two small children, had HER2 positive and received about the same treatment regimen. She has been so very helpful and reached out to me in the very beginning. Her work as the program manager with the Young Breast Cancer Survivor Network is reaching so many of us that need to the support in dealing with side effects and life changes, and embracing survivorship, that accompany a cancer diagnosis. She is one of the smartest, sweetest ladies I know, but most important my sister in Christ who will pray for and with me, anytime! I am so happy God brought you into my life, Silvia! All your hard work is not unnoticed, you are making such a difference!!!

“He will command His angels concerning you to guard you carefully.” Luke 4:10 A few weeks ago I was reminded that September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month (Leukemia and Lymphoma) and encouraged me to use my blog to help raise awareness. I am always willing to give a voice to those fighting and winning against cancer. To me cancer never wins. I will never understand the painful process or the impact and loss it causes but I rest in knowing that...ONE DAY there will be no more cancer. Period. You know how sometimes you read a blog or a book about someone's life and you are just blown away with their story? You connect with so many parts of their lives and you gain insight and inspiration immediately. As was the case with the story, art and website of Patience Brewster , you must take a look for yourself at their page! Patience Brewster reached out to me about writing about a post, after reading some of my cancer stories on Blessings, Suzanne. Patience designs Christmas

On Your Mark

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7 While walking on my everyday path and praying about the upcoming Race for the Cure, that I plan to RUN this year, my eyes fell right upon this cross. (picture to the left). I am sure if any of my neighbors were looking out their window it was a sight to see me staring at the ground and saying "only You, God" (and likely very loudly, due to the fact that I had my earbuds in and music blaring)! Two pieces of pine straw put perfectly together to form the cross on the road. What a sweet reminder of God's love! After I snapped a picture, I began to pick up the pace a bit and RUN. Baby steps. My faith in myself had been renewed that I was reminded to look to Jesus to help me run this race. The problem is I don't like to run. I never have, walking is just fine with me...smile! To be honest, I have never challenged myself to do so. So, this is the year! It's my

Get Your House In Order: Sunday Scripture

"So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,  To see Your power and glory. Psalm 63:2 I read these two verses to Luke this morning, he was the first one up, besides me. It was a great opportunity to tell him how I read the  reference verses that go along with the verses each day. We looked up the verses and read them as well. He thought that was cool (his words). We had a brief moment of discussion and then he moved on. We don't normally get that morning time together...what a blessing! Have a wonderful Sunday!
