God's Child

I was 26 and living the best Christian life I could. I finally understanding just what God wanted me to do for him. Preach my word he said, so I finally went forward to do his will.

My body had been feeling very weak; at times I literally had to just lie down. I had to leave my job. I was not being that active mommy for my sons, who are 5 and 6, and not being able to be the wife I wanted to be. And honestly, I had no idea what was wrong with me. To be totally honest I thought I was having a bad cycle.

The first time I knew something was wrong, my husband and I were at my youngest son's orientation for kindergarten. I passed out in front of everyone outside that day. Including the ice cream man who was passing out ice cream to the children that day. When I came to, my husband was praying over me and I heard a man (pastor we know) ask if I was fasting.

But through all of this and many, many trips to the doctor not one doctor could find anything wrong. I passed out many times after that. It was the most awful feeling ever. Not knowing when and where it would happen. The pain then began to come so fierce that I thought I would literally die. I can't describe this pain. I thought for sure that I would die; still no one around our area could find anything wrong.

We began to pray and ask God for answers. Then the answer came. It was news that literally left me breathless. After emergency surgery (partial hysterectomy and many, many, months of pain. A doctor told me I had metastatic sarcoma cancer. I knew God had had his mighty hand on my life, and still does because they gave me 30 days to live, and that’s been 4 years ago. God has healed me many times and the doctors can't understand many things. But I understand that I am his servant and I would not change anything. I have grown in my faith, and know that there is nothing I can't ask that my sweet Lord won't grant.

I am now facing a major surgery to remove a tumor that is almost 1ft in length in my left side. I am now 29 years old. I know God is in control. My love for life, the thankfulness for life, the love for my family, and the ministry is worth it all I love you, Jesus.
