Currently I'm doing a home Bible Study. The title is Walking with God (Learning discipleship in the Psalms) by Richard D. Phillips. Today I read "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. Isaiah 43:2 & 3"
Next month it will be two years since I started this health/illness marathon. I am feeling better than I have since it all began. I still tire following a half day of being busy but that's a vast improvement. Yesterday I accompanied Hampton on a routine visit to his cardiologist. As he walked into the room he asked me how I am. I explained that my pancreatic cancer is stable and my right knee has been revised and I can walk, using a cane. (Revision is replacement of an earlier prosthesis) The technician had done vitals and an EKG on Hampton. The cardiologist commented that all his readings are good. He shook Hampton's hand then came to me and said "You get a hug!" He was very pleased with both of us.
We're preparing for Christmas with a brighter outlook than last year. May God grant you peace and happiness during this Advent Season and throughout 2012.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Barbara
