I have really struggled with writing this blog right now, in fact I know Satan does not want me to write it because he's been messing with my computer for what seems like weeks. I have tried and tried repeatedly to access my blogger account and was never able to get to it until today. Google, Microsoft Edge....none of them would allow me to access the internet on my computer. Coincidence? I don't think so. In fact I know it's not just a coincidence or just some random twist of fate. Satan does not want me to tell what we, as a family, have been going through. You see......
A month ago, my son was suffering from a very severe headache. His fiancé rushed him to the hospital. We all thought it was a severe migraine. Well after the doctors read the CT report we knew otherwise. There was a mass. It was big enough to cause concern so they operated to remove the mass. A few weeks later we heard the news. It wasn't as bad as we were first told (Thank You God) but it's still the "c" word. (FYI...I will not use the name of that "c" word. I won't speak it or name it.) The news wasn't the best, nor was it the worse. I'm not telling you about this for sympathy or pity. The fact that my son has to endure treatments in the future is hard and it has been difficult on all of us. It came on so suddenly that we were all in a state of shock. But as I started to pray about this i realized one thing....BUT GOD!
The doctors thought they knew what it was...BUT GOD knew differently.
The prognosis wasn't good...BUT GOD knew differently.
The doctors are putting a plan into place...BUT GOD has His own plan.
I have shed tears and wondered why, then within the past few weeks here in the area where we live, there have been 4 - 5 teenage drivers killed in car crashes. Through all of this God has reminded me of one simple truth...we are all terminal. We will all die eventually but none of us know when, where or how. Our life here on Earth is very short in light of eternity. It seems like just yesterday I was holding my son in my arms rocking him to sleep. It seems like just yesterday that he got on the school bus for the first time. It seems like just yesterday that he wrecked his first car. It seems like just yesterday he married the girl of his dreams...oh wait that was only 3 weeks ago.
BUT GOD...is still in the miracle working business. BUT GOD...can heal my son. BUT GOD...can do the impossible. BUT GOD...BUT GOD...BUT GOD...BUT GOD!
My faith lies in the simple fact that God still performs miracles. He is still God Almighty, All Powerful! He has a plan for my son and His plan is perfect and good. Through all of this I have seen our family pull together in ways I never imagined. I have witnessed the intense love between my son and his new wife. I have a peace that surpasses all human understanding. I know God is in control and I believe His plan is already in place.
I know where my son will spend eternity, where will you? Heaven and hell are real and Jesus Christ died so that you could be forgiven and live in eternity with Him. It's a choice...be careful Who you choose to follow because an eternity in hell sounds terrible.
