"And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:7)
Sometimes it's amazing to see how God keep us with His peace, but as His word says, it transcends all understanding!!! It's being almost a month since I got diagnosed with cancer and I have to accept that even with that, I can see the wonders of my LORD, His mercy and love upon my life. I was praying and asking Him to do His will and finally today we saw the surgeon, who scheduled my surgery for next Monday...Unbelievable!!! It's something you probably don't want to have but it's ok when you feel that God is with you. The way back home my husband asked me a good question: "why are you happy about getting a surgery? can't believe you're happy about it"- he said. Well honey- I said-the truth is that I am not happy about getting a surgery, but I am happy because God gave me His peace and it's His will, so I'll do it that way.
No matter how crazy it sounds, I know there is hundreds of people praying for my husband and I, asking God for a miracle; maybe some of them will be disappointed that there was not a miracle with getting health, but I am more that THANKFUL with God because when it's done according to His will, it's SO much better that what we can see right now. Yes, I'll have a scar on my neck for the rest of my life, but I'll be alive, I will shout with joy that I AM A CANCER SURVIVOR THANKS TO HIM!!! I'll see that scar as a reminder that it could have been worst but it was NOT.
During the past few weeks, I've felt my heart broken, I've seen how it hurts, I've seen people who love me cried and prayed to God for me and that right there is another reason to be thankful for. It didn't go with getting health without the surgery, which means that God wants me to go through that one, but the most wonderful thing is to know that I am not alone; I have the Almighty one walking by my side, a wonderful husband taking care of me, a lovely family in Colombia getting on their knees for me and a great, GREAT family in Christ, that I din't even know I had, praying for me too. When the LORD doesn't answer the way we want, is the perfect moment for us to trust Him and rest on His will, according to His wonderful purspose for our lives.
I will always praise His name, I'll always pray for His will be done, even though it's not the way I want, because His is perfect, mine is only human; He can see the future, I can only dream about it; He can give me peace that trascends all understanding, I can only give myself worries; He can carry me through and I can only be His precious girl on His arms. Halleluja!!!
"I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonders.I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High" (Psalm 9:1-2)
