Heavy Heart ~ Cancer

                                               Heavy Heart~Cancer                                                                     

 Sorry I haven't been on my blog much. My hearts been heavy. I have been  thinking and working on one but when I sit down to do it I fall to sleep or I just can't put it into words like I did right before logging online.  So I've decided to just wait and when the timings right God will help it come together for me.
    Today my heart is aching. I'm really missing my dad. As fathers day draws near I have to stop and think of my father and all the wonderful memories we had.  Many rough days but many wonderful days also.  My heart starts to sing and I start to cry out, "Why, Lord? Why?"
    I got word last night from a dear friend of mine that her mother not only has breast cancer but now has brain cancer and hospice was starting to come today. The Estes Family is a very dear family to me and my heart just aches. I want to be there with them and for them like I was serveral years ago when my friends dad had a stroke.  Judy is a beautiful lady and Loves the Lord!!  I'm asking that you would please pray for comfort and peace & strength for the family during this time and that Judy wouldn't have to suffer long. I know by personal experience how hard it is to watch someone so special suffer. I know they appreciate everyone's prayers. My friend (DeLisa Lee) is a daughter~in~law to the people I lived with in Mississippi (Levi & Elmina Lee) and they're are just alot of connections to their family for me. So this hits really hard. David Estes would also be a son~in~law to Levi & Elmina Lee.  Damon would of married one of my dear students (Kim Graber) and Destin while he just made the best Southern tea for me whenever I'd drop in!!  Dexter & Daniel I've gotten to know but not quite as well as the others. I do have a good memory of spending time with Daniel in Washington D.C...So yeah my heart aches for them all...And goes out to them all...please pray...thanks for all the prayers.
      Also got word of a 6 year old boy (Conner Wagler) who is neighbors to us that has a tumor on his brain stem and their pretty sure its cancerous.
      I think too of a 5 year old boy Benton Brovant from Washington who has been fighting cancer for quite sometime...
       And a dear family (the High Family) who lost their mother to cancer just a little over a year ago. A family of 7.
      Cancer...Why?  Why, can't they do more? Cancer is so bad already and hard on a person why do they have to get so sick when their getting treatments for it??
      My sister~in~law has fought the battle of cancer and so far has won!!  Cancer is just one of those words that everyone dislikes and I just really struggle with it.  But we know that God has a reason and a plan for all he has allowed. And he doesn't ask us to Understand but only to TRUST Him!!!
       For anyone fighting cancer know that they're is a special spot in my heart for you...Keep trusting and Holding tight to Christ the Great Physician!!!             ~ A Praying Warrior~
