Listen

Back tracking a little here. Ran out of hours yesterday to record my thoughts. Yesterday morning’s God time started with tears of frustration and commanding words for Satan to get away from me! Amazing how after the distraction of work, he came right back again. Whispering lies of hopelessness, aloneness, and failure. Even more amazing is in the midst of the second round of tear-filled battling, a dear friend/family member followed the Spirit’s prompting, reached out, listened to my aching heart, and spoke gentle words of love and truth. Love A.J. deeply and love our God who uses us to bless one another when we follow His still small voice. We can’t depend on just one person to meet all our needs, but we can depend on God. And He will use whomever is listening to be His hands and feet. Can’t tell you how often that has happened during this cancer road, and from such a variety of people: friends, family, and strangers. From all who are hurting, thanks for listening. Keep reaching out to those God has pressed heavy on your heart.
