Don't Waste Your Cancer

I had been waiting hear the results for two weeks. The first diagnosis was pneumonia, but the medication prescribed did not help. More tests ensued. Then, the diagnosis we feared: cancer. My stepdad has cancer.

Two months ago I started reading Libby's blog (http://libbyryder.blogspot.com/). She is my age. She has a sweet family --- a little girl too. And she has cancer. She might feel weak, but I see her as incredibly strong. Every time I visit her blog, I start a comment. Then I delete the comment and rewrite it. I just cannot find the right words. 

I feel the same way when writing this post. I really don't know what else to say other than: I refuse to waste your cancer too. I am fiercely praying for my stepdad and for Libby. Will you join me and pray for them??? Xoxo-BLC

I believe Psalm 23: "The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. Thou dost prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows. Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever."
