It has been one year now since I completed chemotherapy and radiation treatment. Praise God for the gift of recovery!
I have my own hair now. Although it is thin I am soooooooooo thankful to have hair!
When I encountered the possibility of death last year I noted that I was not ready. I had only a few items of unfinished businesses on earth. I realized that the projects I was involved in were really insignificant and most of my commitments could be easily replaced by others.
I was not ready because I found my love for God to be so limited. I do not know how best to describe my feelings. I would have to rely on faith hope and love to carry me through the transition of death to heaven. [1 Cor 13:13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. Only faith, hope and love remain.] So I have been praying that I would grow in these three. Praise God I think I have!
I must confess that I still get entangled in sin and hindered by many things easily. [Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.] May the Lord help us run with perseverance in this race!
Another reason I felt unready to be with the Lord was that I wanted more opportunities to share Christ with nonbelievers. This is the area I have not seen a lot of changes. So I am praying that the Lord will teach me.
