The Journey Continues:An Amazing Day

God gives us a new day every day and everyone of them have the possibility to become amazing.  Sometimes it is just seeing that wonderful sunrise peeking over the horizon, sometimes it is the birth of a baby and sometimes it is being alive for at least one more day.  Richard had an appointment on Monday to remove the fluids that surrounded his lungs.  The ex rays that were taken about two weeks ago showed as much or maybe more fluids than what had been removed last month.  The amazing thing on Monday was that there were no fluids around his lungs to remove!

I am not saying that the fluids will not come back or Richard will not have problems because he will but when God steps in it is an amazing day!  God is amazing no matter what!  God has shown his amazing hand many, many times during Richard's journey with cancer and beyond.

Richard and I finished out our day in the city by receiving an awesome pie from our sister-in-law.  Amazing as always!  Thanks Shelly!!  We than ventured over to see my mom before leaving Oklahoma City.  My mom was in a great mood and showed immediate signs of recognition.  She has had a mini stroke in the area of her brain where her memory is stored and also has dementia

Since this event in her life, one thing that has changed is how she shows her affection towards me.  I don't remember her showing much affection. That has changed.  The new normal is for her to grab, hug and give big slobbery kisses.  She grabbed me when it was time to go and whispered in my ear, "I will love you forever!"  Now that is amazing!

The wonderful thing is that I know that I will see her forever because our forever will be together.  I will be forever with her in eternity.  Now that will be beyond amazing! What about you?  Where will your forever be?

John 3:16-17New King James Version (NKJV)

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
