“Good-bye my dear boys!” “Please keep them safe—“My heart cried out to God today as I watched Eric and Josh pull out of the parking lot pulling a homemade trailer with Eric’s rebuilt motorcycle, clothes and other belongings needed for dental school. I was comforted to know that on the other side of the country Jessica and Wes were also praying and waiting eagerly for their arrival. I had to focus on the excitement I saw in Eric’s eyes knowing that his hard work had paid off, and he really was off to Loma Linda Medical Center to fulfill his dreams. Pride filled my heart as I thought of the blessings of having adult children who are willing to put their energy into pursuing their dreams, adult children who aren’t afraid of hard work and who love the Lord! I am SO blessed but my how I will miss that boy! I am filled with gratitude that Josh will be returning home next week to fulfill his dream of engineering at Georgia Tech—At least he will be home on weekends! I am SO thankful to have Meagan moving back home this fall as she resumes her studies to become a speech pathologist. How thankful I am for the miracles God is working in all of our lives. I am SO blessed!!

After sending my precious sons off I tried not to worry since I still had no word about my CT scan—IF it was good why wasn’t I getting the report? My emotions were in an upheaval as I kept reminding myself it was all about TRUST! Finally this afternoon at around 4pm I got the call I had been waiting for—my tumors had shrunk! Thank you God for my miracle! THANK YOU for letting me feel Your love, and even if the news had not been what I wanted to hear for helping me to find the peace to know that no matter what happens my life is in God’s hands!

I sought the Lord and He heard me,

And delivered me from all my fears. (Psalms 34:4)

For I the Lord your God will hold your right hand,

Saying, “Fear not, I will help you! (Isaiah 41:13)

Therefor I say unto you, do not worry about your life . . . (Matt 6:25)
