Life can be so very clear one minute and so upside the next. It's very easy at that point to let negative thoughts creep in but then I'm reminded constantly that God works in tremendously diverse ways. I have learned that everything happens for a reason. I can try and control different aspects of my live but I do not set my own path. God sets it for me. God uses so many different resources and people and places and things, even a memory, to bring me back to realize that he has a plan. That he is working on a plan in my life, just for me and then, the confusion goes away. I'm beginning to understand this more now than ever. As I am going through the chemo, I know that everything is going to be fine. God is going to bring me and my family through this.
Each day I am reminded of that and of Gods love through the selfless giving of others. It's overwhelming to see how much people want to help. It has touched my heart so much so that I can't articulate in words how much it means to me. Through family, through friends and through strangers, He is blessing us. I am grateful and joyous.
Until next time,
Dan
