Reflection for April 20, 2017

"Surely, you behold trouble and misery; you see it and take it into your own hand."(Psalm 10:14)

Last night my family was given very hard news, Gail's biopsy came back and was found to be cancer. That is a call no family ever wants to hear.  We are not the first nor will we be the last to hear such news.  We were told to make an appointment with an oncologist and a breast surgeon ASAP.  After getting past the intial shock, we began to make the phone calls and appointments.  And in this era of online stuff the oncologist our doctor said to call had an appointment today and so the journey begins.

I know God beheld our trouble and misery and took it into his hands.  Our children were there and we were surrounded by the love of family.  God's guidance was clear in leading us to know how to use the gifts given in technology and to not let our trouble and misery paralyze us.

I know that God will continue to hold us in the palms of his hand as we take this journey into the unknown.  That knowledge walking hand in hand with the love and support of the family and friends God has gifted us with will be a true gift.

Blessings,
Ed
