This is the first post of my new blog. My daughter, Lydia, has designed it all for me as I am really challenged in the area of computers. Actually anything electronic can be a frustration to me. Anyway ~ the purpose of doing a blog was, at least, two-fold. I know that many are going to want updates on my health issues. But mainly I have felt for some time now that the Lord might be leading me to do this. I don't have any great wisdom or spiritual insights but I do love the Savior and I want as many to know this as possible.
In I Corinthians 13:12 it says this, "For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known." Last Thursday Dan and I went to hear the results of a biopsy done on me. The doctor was so kind when he told us that the pathology came back with cancer cells. He left to give us time to take it in. We cried. We have been down this path before and had hoped not to do it again. But God's ways are not ours and even though we can't see clearly as to what He is doing we can sense the lovingkindness of our Savior who fully knows us. This might just be a bump in the road or it just might be a very difficult journey. Either way He goes before us to make a way. This is our hope, comfort and peace. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the many prayers on our behalf. We are blessed.
Wow, Lydia did a great job on this. I will be following closely. You write beautifully and of course I will be praying for you all every day...I love you, my beloved DIL....You are very dear to my heart.....Dee
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU LYDIA AND JUDY. YOU ARE SO RIGHT I KNOW MANY ARE VERY CONCERNED FOR YOU. KNOWING IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN NOT KNOWING (ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A WORRIER AS I AM) AND EVERY LOAD IS LIGHTER WHEN IT'S SHARED. BLESSINGS AND BEST WISHES ALWAYS ED SCOTT
ReplyDeleteThanks for the resource, Judy. (BTW, the plainer font gets my vote, for both legibility and beauty)
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so glad you are going to be doing this. I'm always wondering how you are doing, and certainly would appreciate being kept up to date on your results, etc. This is so hard for me as your sister. I would much rather God gave me the cancer than you. This is breaking my heart. Love you sooooooo much! Jan
ReplyDeleteSo glad to have this to stay in touch with you. Great job Lydia on the design. I have been blogging for years but my place has grown quiet over the last litte while....sometimes that is needed.
ReplyDeleteWe are praying for you and yours as you walk this road. Love you guys.
Absolutely beautiful Lydia...what a gift you are!
ReplyDeleteAlways amazed how I Cor 13:12 confronts me and answers
all my questions. Know that you are loved and prayed for, Judy. I know this writing takes energy which only the Lord can provide.
