Last Saturday Michelle and Richard came over and in the evening my Dad and Richard went out and we had a girls night. Michelle, my mom and me. Lately I have been pretty depressed with my whole situation and we watched the movie "Soul Surfer." In this movie the main character has her arm bitten off and her whole life has changed in a second and she uses this verse as encouragement to remember that God is in control of everything that happens in our lives. A couple of years ago I bought a tile with this verse on as a gift for a friend. For some reason I never gave the gift to them and I have it in my bedroom. I look at it every day but for some reason the words these words have a whole new meaning. For the past year it seems like my life has been on hold. I had to wait to have my gastric bypass (which still has not happened), I had to wait to have my cyst removed and then I had to wait to see if my cancer has been isolated to one spot or if it had spread throughout my body.
I can make plans for my life but I am not in control of my life. God has planned how my life will turn out before I was even born. I cannot change anything that is happening but I can work on improving my health by doing what the doctors say and by praying.
Life is never easy. There are a lot of ups and downs throughout it but I have to put my trust in the Lord that he will help me get through all of this.
