ENS Tree

ENS Tree
May 13th was the day of my tragic surgery. In honor of my anniversary and all ENS victims, I planted and dedicated a beautiful Crab tree. For all ENS sufferers that have endured the fight and to others who have lost their fight, this little red tree is a reminder of our suffering and hardship with ENS. But most of all, it symbolizes GOD's hope, because not one of you will ever be forgotten by HIM! Only with GOD will we prevail!

This blog is the beginning of something terrific, and I look forward to seeing it unfold, with direction from the one above. My faith has been a critical support in coping with ENS, as I am sure it is to many others.

Keep up the great work!

HOLD FAST

HOLD FAST

2 Samuel 22:14 - 19 NIV

14 The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.

15 He shot arrows and scattered the enemies, bolts of lightning and routed them.

16 The valleys of the sea were exposed and the foundations of the earth laid bare at the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of breath from his nostrils.

17 He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters.

18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me.

19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster, but the LORD was my support.

Song: HOLD FAST by Mercy Me

To everyone who's hurting
To those who've had enough
To all the undeserving
That should cover all of us.
Please do not let go.
I promise there is hope.
Hold fast, Help is on the way.
Hold fast, He's come to save the day.
What I've learned in my life,
One thing greater than my strife,
Is His grasp...So hold fast.

Will this season ever pass?
Can we stop this ride?
Will we see the sun at last?
Or could this be our lot in life?
Please do not let go,
I promise you there's hope.
You may think you're all alone,
And there's no way that anyone could know,
What you're going through,
But if you only hear one thing,
Just understand that we are all the same,
Searching for the truth.
The truth of what we're soon to face,
Unless someone comes to take our place,
Is there anyone?
All we want is to be free...Free from our captivity, Lord
Here it comes fast.
Help is on the way.
Hold fast...He's come to save the day.
What I've learned in my life,
One thing stronger than my strife,
Is Your grasp...So hold fast.
Help is on the way,
So hold fast He's come to safe the day.
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife...Is Your grasp
SO HOLD FAST

Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever. 1 Chronicles 16:34

Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever.    1 Chronicles 16:34

Psalm 130:2-7 NIV

2 O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.

3 If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand?

4 But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.

5 I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope.

6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.

7 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption.

God's Hand Touching Ours

God's Hand Touching Ours

1 Peter 5:5-10 NIV

5 Young men, in the same way be submissive to those who are older. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble."

6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.

7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

8 Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

Blessing

Numbers 6:24-26

24 The LORD bless you and keep you;

25 The LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you;

26 The LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.
