Psalm 18:28-36 For You will light my lamp; The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness, for by You I can run against a troop, by my God I can leap over a wall. Ask for God, His way is perfect; the word of the Lord is proven' He is a shield to all who trust in Him. For who is God, except the Lord? and who is a rock, except our God? It is God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of deer, and sets me on my high places. He teaches my hands to make war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You have also given me the shield of Your salvation; Your right had has held me up, Your gentleness has made me great. You enlarged my path under me, so my feet did not slip.

Look for the Light
Even when the sun shines brightly outside, darkness can seems to prevail when circumstances become grim.
I have been there personally, I experienced that darkness when I was diagnosed with breast cancer June 27, 2004 . I experienced darkness when my Uncle Kenny was killed in train wreck, when my "swinging" Granny passed away. Three years ago identity theft, I stood overwhelmed by that darkness. I have walked through darkness with my family and friends over loss of loved ones.
When the blackness of the night seemly prevails, the Light of the world, Jesus, the Son of God, shows up. I truly KNOW that without my relationship with Jesus, I would be in at total darkness . The Lord has many times lighted up my personal darkness. Like David, I experienced God's mighty salvation in such a way, that filled him back with confidence that God Himself empower him to do the impossible. To keep moving forward day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute. God was the foundation of David's life and personal strength. He believed God would empower him to run as fast as a deer, granting him the skill and swiftness to go places that only God could take him. As David walked by faith and in humility, God seemed to open doors for his future that were only explainable by God himself.
I KNOW with the faith and light of God's Hand for my path, I am cancer free 10 yrs April 12, 2014, My uncle Kenny and Grandmother, are in heaven waiting on the rest of our family and friends. After a 1 1/2 years of identity theft, police in Fort Worth, did arrest someone. my finances restored.
Have you ever been so overcome with darkness that you were gripped with fear and hope seemed to depart? Well I have, I fell to my knees and SCREAMED JESUS JESUS JESUS, cried daily, depressed, overwhelmed, then I got mad from the sad, started with the power of God to move forward. If you haven't yet, one day you will. When it happens look for the light! JESUS IS THERE! Lift up your hands, fall to your knees, choose to believe again. God is the foundation of your life, so you are unshakable! His Spirit is in you to empower you every breath of every moment of every day. He is so powerful He is able to provide places for you to go, opening doors of opportunity that are only explainable by God Himself. Walk in personal humility before the Lord, and He will enlarge your life and influence.

He opened the door for me to share my personal journey with all of you! I read a devotion every morning and He places on my heart what to share with you, I prayed the day I found out about my cancer, that I would be a vessel to share His Word, my experiences with others.
I share my personal journal and experience with cancer , the herbs I took, how to deal with nausea, the fatigue, the WORD OF GOD.
"Paying it Forward', to Jan Henderson, Debbie Moody, Alicia Montgomery, Steve Cunningham, Tim Acosta, doing auctions / donate money to them during their time of need.
FOR IT IS WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.

HAVE A VERY BLESSED DAY, LOOK FOR THE LIGHT
