A week before her divorce was final my sweet and beautiful friend was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is someone that always puts others before herself, and loves her job as a special needs one-on-one at the local high school. Now, as a single parent undergoing treatment it will be a gruesome feat and she will need all the help she can get.
She shares:
Today the kids and I officially moved into our new home!
When God says move you do it! Some people know but most don’t, at the end of June my divorce came to a legal end. It was a long hard fought journey but I was glad for it to be over. The kids and I were supposed to have a start fresh and heal and live our best lives, but cancer.
I was advised to stay in my marital home until I received my share of the home (90 days is the limit) I planned to abide. Yesterday morning as I had my Bible open I felt the Lord clearly tell me to MOVE and move quick….. so out of obedience I did it! I spent all day yesterday and today moving and we’re here! In our new home filled with peace and love and lots of laughter (not joking) earlier this house was erupting with laughter. Most of all I believe this house is where we get to heal.
So if you’ve tracked with me this far, why am I sharing all of this? Right? It’s so personal and I haven’t shared anything publicly about my divorce for the last year and a half process.
I’m sharing because I believe God asked me to share about obedience. I could list numerous reasons why I should have stayed but when God speaks there is always purpose behind it. I don’t know exactly what it is yet but I’m here to find out
For an update: my appointment at Penn it didn’t go well. I have triple negative breast cancer – literally the most aggressive and fast growing. For a moment I was shattered, literally shattered. I told God I was angry, I told him this wasn’t fair, I told him I didn’t understand, guess what he can handle it. He picked me up and set me back on my feet. I believe in this obedience God is going to move, I don’t know how but this is what I’m praying for if you would join me.
I’m praying for healing. I’m praying chemo, radiation, and sickness away in Jesus name. I’m praying the enemy has no hold over me or my children. I’m praying the Lord gives me direction before Wednesdays which is my appointment with oncology- I’m going to have to make a big decision.
