Our call came on Monday
morning, “Mom, we think E.C. has leukemia.”
Within 24 hours their diagnosis was confirmed. And so began another family journey that we
are praying will build our faith, draw us closer to Christ and make us more like
Him!
So, where do we turn when
the unthinkable happens? It’s the time
to reach deep, into the Word and even song.
This morning these words kept running through my head…
Have thine own way, Lord,
Have thine own way,
Hold or my being absolute
sway.
Fill with Thy Spirit,
Till all shall see,
Christ only, always, living
in me.
And my prayer for E.C...
I will
exalt you, my God the King;
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.
Great is
the Lord and most worthy
of praise;
his greatness no one can fathom.
One generation commends your works to another;
they tell of your mighty acts.
They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty—
and I will meditate on your wonderful works.
They tell of the power of your awesome works—
and I will proclaim your great deeds.
They celebrate your abundant goodness
and joyfully sing of your righteousness.

and satisfy the desires of every living thing.
