Welcome to Jessie's Journal! This is my first posting on my blog which I have set up to help me on my journey with breast cancer. For those who don't know on the 19th of May I had surgery to remove a cancerous tumour on my left side and when the lab report came back it showed that I have a second cancer as well. I will now be having a mastectomy, but prior to the surgery my surgeon wants to make sure there is nothing on the right side. Tomorrow I am having an MRI scan which hopefully will show there is nothing there. My prayer is that it will be clear. I am learning day by day that my Heavenly Father loves me so much and that He cares for me more than anyone ever could. I love the idea (which is found in Scripture) of Him being a gentle Shepherd holding His lamb close to His Heart.

ReplyDeleteI will pray for you tomorrow. When Ken went through cancer surgery after we came back from Guyana I too was encouraged by the Lord being my shepherd. In His loving arms you will not want any good thing.

ReplyDeletePraying for you everyday. I know God will give you peace in whatever the outcome. Although I hope it is for the better.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a huge encouragement to me to write a blog over the last 7 months and I know it will be to you too. It's amazing to be part of God's family and have so many people supporting & praying for you. Through the most difficult times God will bless you in ways you never imagined.

Lots of love,

ReplyDelete"By day the Lord directs his love,
ReplyDeleteat night his song is with me"
I read this today and thought of you. He is mighty to save and who knows why He has brought you to this place. Perhaps to display His wonders and release many captives. He delights in you. Dawn
