I posted this to my Facebook page yesterday (Monday, February 17), but I wanted to share it here, too!!!
After a night of little sleep due to continued leg pain, this morning I've been saying Philippians 4:13 over and over every time I feel some pain. Then my devotion this morning was titled, "Attitude - Choose to Be a Victor" by David Zerfoss. The devotion talked about how he received a cancer diagnosis before Christmas of 2001.
This one quote from David really challenged me. "When circumstances, people, or an illness threaten to get you down, remember that you always have a choice in how you react to and deal with the situation. Choose to confront challenges head-on, no matter how serious they are. And choose your friends wisely along the way. They’ll be there for you when you need them, supporting and encouraging you to choose to lead a powerful life — one of a victor!"
I believe that with God's help, I have chosen to fight this diagnosis head on. I also believe that I would not be in the mental state I am today if it wasn't for family and the many friends - near & far - who continually pray for me and encourage me.
So, I in turn, encourage you to face any problem you have with God in the driver's seat and aimed directly at the foe. And take a few good friends along for the ride!!!!! Remember, with God all things are possible!!!!
Only by His Strength,
Sandy
