A Future and a Hope

I met with Dr Cohen last night and my new final radiation treatment date is this Thursday! Mom and I both were tearful as we realized we really are seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. There was a huge, beautiful rainbow across the horizon when we got home, a wonderful confirmation of His goodness. Again, I was brought to tears and standing by myself in the driveway, I hollered out "Thank You, Lord!" In the book of Ruth, after journeying to another country and losing her husband and sons, Naomi tells people to call her by a different name (Mara) as she was a changed person. I kind of feel like that, too, that I have undergone an enormous transformation through my journey, and I am now a different person. I won't be changing my name~ but I hope a new light will be visible shining through me.

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find me,when you search for me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:11-13
