This morning was the annual termite inspection for our house. The inspector, Greg, that came out got to talking with Chad and I. We talked about life, kids etc. He asked me if I was okay and I began to tell him a little bit about our journey over the last few years and months and he began to tell us his story.
His wife Tiffany, has been battling lung cancer for the last year. They have been in and out of the hospital and from my understanding just finished the last round of treatment in January. They have now just gotten another report that her sodium levels have bottomed out, which usually means that the cancer is back. I asked Greg if it would be okay if I included he and his wife in my blog today so that all of you amazing people could be praying for them both in this time. We all know that fear is our biggest enemy and when we are walking through something that seems so real despite what we know God can do, it's still really hard and we need people praying and standing with us. So before I go onto say the rest of what God laid on my heart for today, will you all stop and pray with me for a miracle for Tiffany?
Jesus, we thank You for Tiffany and Greg. We thank You Lord, that Your Word says that she can live a life that is whole and healed. We are asking you Jesus, that there would be no more cancer in her body and that the spirit of sickness and disease would not be allowed to exist in Tiffany's body. We know that you can perform miracles and do amazing things and we are believing you now, that Tiffany's body is healed. No matter what the doctors say, we stand on Your Word, and that's the truest report. Thank You Lord, in Jesus Name Amen!
I really believe that God allowed us to meet Greg today so that we could stand with he and his wife. The title of my post fits this so much. It's from an elevation worship song and I just woke up singing it this morning. I don't usually like to make this known, but my birthday is this Sunday. There have been a few times over the last couple of months where I wasn't sure I was gonna make it to this birthday. That may sound dramatic to you, but it's really what I felt.
2 Corinthians 1:20, " For all the promises of God in Him are yes, and in Him amen, to the glory of God through us." Romans 8:11, " He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you."
Because of God's promises, I am here for my birthday. And because of God's promises, Tiffany is here for her birthday tomorrow! So happy birthday Tiffany!
On a practical note, we met with the internal doc yesterday and we are continuing on this track of repairing my adrenals. He really believes that's the root of all of this so keep praying with us. We are starting some new stuff and weaning from some old and just continuing to trust God in the process.
Because we're alive, we give You our lives Jesus...think on this...He deserves our lives, He freely gave us His.
well. i'm in tears reading about Tiffany.....knowing Jesus loves her and gave his blood so she could have healing...cancer must bow to His blood....thank u Mandy and Chad for sending His Word to her......and being vessels of His love and compassion.....for some people Easter is a once a year Holiday...but for Christians we can experience His Resurrection Life everyday in every situation.....the power of the cross is still being revealed to me the more I live and the cost of the cross the more I die.......Amazed by His Grace on You! Mom
