I'm kind of sick today. Other than that, I'm doing real well. Willard is cleaning and vacuuming the house. He cooked me a wonderful breakfast of ham and eggs, with a toasted roll to go with it. I am very blessed to have such a wonderful husband as he is. I'm still remembering the little lady when I had chemo before, whose husband walked out on her because he could not handle the everyday of her cancer. And it broke my heart that there are such people on this earth. I just remember how frail she looked, as she sat there pleading for them to give her chemo, even though her blood count was tremendously low. They gave her two units of blood that day and sent her home. I often wonder what happened to her. How many other women and men for that matter that are sick. And in their worst time of need the one they thought loved them the most, walked out on them.
There is someone who will never leave you nor forsake you. That is Jesus. At my lowest times, that old song, what a friend we have in Jesus comes to mind.
What a friend we have in Jesus,All our sins and griefs to bear!What a privilege to carryEverything to God in prayer!Oh, what peace we often forfeit,Oh, what needless pain we bear,All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer!
Have we trials and temptations?Is there trouble anywhere?We should never be discouraged—Take it to the Lord in prayer.Can we find a friend so faithful,Who will all our sorrows share?Jesus knows our every weakness;Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Are we weak and heavy-laden,Cumbered with a load of care?Precious Savior, still our refuge—Take it to the Lord in prayer.Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?Take it to the Lord in prayer!In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,Thou wilt find a solace there.
And that about says it all, how good to us is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Until next time, God bless and God save.
