This morning I got up bright eyed and bushy tailed as my mom used to say and decided to do some investigation on fatigue in cancer patients such as myself.

My doctor told me it would take a long time for my energy to rebound after my treatment. The physical therapists told me to go at life but do not over due because their is a lot of the brain that is working overtime to get the whole body functioning once again. It is creating new pathways from new brain cells back to my left side.

So, I stopped doing the obsurd things of pushing my body to the brink and throttled back. I was pushing my body , mind and Spirit to the max to heal so that I could get back out into the world to help pay for life/family expenses, to contribute to those that I used to help and for those that need help. For those that I have yet to meet. I again was living on Danny’s time frame which was stupid.

My stubborness and pushing caused me to do some very unsafe things, plus it set me up for failure because I ended up with sciatic nerve pain, and tendonitis of my good arm.

Both these conditions have finally healed Praise God.

It is a real reminder of who I am at the core. I want it all. But, you know God wants the best for us and HE will do his work in me and in you when it is time by his measure only. Where I am today is exactly where he wants me. God wants me to just look to Heaven and wait on him. During this wait time he does not expect me to be just sitting and watching HBO either. We need to reach out to help one another to what ever capacity that we can. God knows my ability far better than I do, he knows what every cell in my body is doing right now. He wants us to subordinate all to him.

Part of my belly acheing is the fact that the energy runs high and low. I have had to learn to pace myself. If I go out for dinner for 4-5 hours and there is walking and stairs involved then, I could spend the next two days on the chair tired and napping.

I have now read so much on the issue that I understand that it is part of the cancer story.

What cancer does and what the Chemo and radiation does to the body requires a long time for the body to rebound and recover from in a real way.

So, life is good. And, if you are wondering why you are tired after cancer treatment or any illness for that matter. look into it with your Dr. and search out others in your boat. It is a comfort to see others pulling through the same life situation.

God’s got us in every moment. Amen.

I just found this video, God brought me directly to it.

This was not planned by me but look how it goes with what I just wrote.

That’s God per usual. Always perfect in his timing.

I spoke to a dear friend today and she has been such a beautiful witness to Christ in so many ways for so many people. Isn’t it funny how those who truely witness God are so unaware of the effect that they have on so many others. It is a beautiful humbleness. Amen!

She said to me I had an experience, I saw Jesus there were no words spoken but it was beautiful.

She said, I know you would understand but I did not want to scare others. I said did it bring you peace and she said yes, then i said it was a gift from God to let you know that he is in fact happy with you.

There is no fear required 🙂

Guess What ! God’s loving you all too 🙂

Ask God for a revelation in your life 🙂 Knock and he shall answer.

Get up each day no matter what and greet that day with joy and a resolve.

Its not the plight in your life that you face, no matter what it is that defines you ! Look at the dilemma you face and look at the options for creating an opportunity in that situation. Find the hidden pearl in the situation like Sue Austin did. The Holy Spirit of God is unbeleivable so jump into your life and cast your disability into the abyss and live life to its fullest.

Be God strong. You are royalty:) You are the child of a King !

Go full screen and witness this beautiful womens story 🙂

Witnessing the Divine workings of God.

“The Divine Spirit”. I have been wondering when this subject would come to the table. When I finally decided to answer the call to write this blog I thought that this subject (Divine Spirit ) would begin my writings, but the blog writings did not start that way at all. I am honored and grateful to be alive in this moment. The mercy that God has extended to me in this moment is something that I could never be able to understand or comprehend. But it serves a purpose in God’s plan. This is a season in my life that I am witnessing God’s supreme power. I see God in action in others lives and have been called to witness God to others through my life walk.

I never could exactly say how this worked, or what to call it but, I began to call what I have witnessed as the workings of The Divine Holy Spirit. I will begin to write about these very special events.

After my diagnosis, I began witnessing a presence that was emenating from my person that was far greater than me. This Divine Spirit was ministering to people, total strangers ,dealing with non believers and God made them believers in minutes. I had one doctor who was a non believer as I quicky found out. This doctor walked into the exam room this day and I began witnessing my story and once I said the word God, she was turned off. It is something that you cannot miss once you have experienced it. It definately made me feel a bit uncomfortable. My brother was there as well as a nurse R. I was sitting in the wheelchair. She took a posture on the table looking down on me sitting with one leg off the floor and one on the floor. She was so done with me, right away. I felt the HolySpirit in me Rise. Se said I heard about you and was like rolling her eyes, she looked across the room where this nurse R was sitting and at that point God decided thats enough and I addressed her. I sat there and witnesses God changing her life hopefully forever, but who knows ? People can be stubborn. God had me address her. Okay God wants to show you something and I said, but I need you to know the whole truth about my case and God. She stopped me and said show me and I said no, your not listening to God. She looked so frustrated. After a minute I heard in my head show her. So, I said wait a minute God just told me to show you. Her eyes got wide and I stood up out of the wheelchair and said Praise Jesus both my arms lifted towards the ceiling and Heavens. You see that was medically impossible because my whole left side was laid waste by the cancer and treatment. Yet God did it. She thought I was dead man walking, she did not say it , but I knew that she thought it. God knew that day that I would be there and so would she. I gave her my primary doctors name and number and told her of my Miracle healing of my shoulder and knee in Dec, 2010 I Said call him and he will confirm this. She ran out of the room. I told one of my regular doctors and they knew who she was and laughed. But knew how unprofessional that was. I met her only once but, that is all that God needed. He reached her.

That day was not about me, that day was about that lovely Dr. who did not believe that God was part of her/ our lives.

God makes us all extraordinary creatures, each one of us is created in the image of his son Jesus Christ. We are Blessed with gift of the Holy Spirit. We have his breathe sustaining our lives, and his love harkening are hearts back to him. He loves us completely and if you try to live for him he will allow you to become more of a blessing from Heaven to others. Which, in all honesty is a wonderful thing for us because not only are we blessing others by God’s grace but we are securing our place at the table of the Lord.

This is just beautiful, This is from a movie worth watching, August Rush. The point is that music has been a gift to us all. It defines periods of our lives many joyful others painful none the less they make us who we are today. We need to look for good positive things for our minds and the Holy Spirit to embrace during our day’s. I find that I need to ask so God, Whats today about ? Then I pray on it. It does not have to be long and aloborate. it just needs to be heartfelt and he will answer.

Like I always say sometimes we need silence but we also need the joy of good music to inspire us and to sooth us.

From August Rush Movie. Beautiful

My Wife and I took my son to see this production in Boston years ago. It was Donny Osmonds last performance. He became racked with fear and could not continue the tour. They said he had a knee injury but years later he admitted that he needed to step away from his career the fear on stage was crippling him.

Again, he is human like us and for him, he was treated and is back on stage and behind the camera.

It was a beautiful story brought to life before our eyes.

My son always remembers that particular event . It was Special memory for us to share and when we hear the songs its lifts the Spirit and heals us . Amen !

Elvis Presley Another Artist Lost Far Too Young

As a follow up to the Whitney Houston Post from last week.

We have Elvis Presley another artist that passed too quickly. He was so deeply rooted in his faith and you can see by his demise in later years that drugs and alcohol took a toll on him he was only 42. Sometimes we look at other peoples lives and think the grass is a little greener but the reality is that with much wealth comes much responsibility. And if the wrong people are around because of the available finances they can crash you into the rocks.

Elvis was a very good man and had a tremendous God Given gift.

If you look at the post from Sept 23 it has the videos for Delores Hart who is a nun and was Hollywood’s highest paid Starlet. She gave Elvis his first on screen kiss. On the video links on Sr. Delores Hart say’s that what stayed with her and always will is what a wonderful and innocent man Elvis was.

The gifts that this lovely lady has really make you realize how important a connection to oneanother is. The elderly can become invisible to so many of us.

At a quick look, one would never think that this person would be so accomplished, but God is in everyone of us. And thats why we cannot judge a book by its cover. 🙂

So, I say God Bless Her ! and Thanks 🙂

Pray that her box of offerings overflows 🙂

Here is an interesting story of a lovely young women who a has terminal brain cancer such as what I was diagnosed with 2.8 years ago. I too had a very short window of life expectancy as well.

My writing today is not to confront her on her choice but rather to try and see where it comes from.I understand that she does not want to suffer, who does?

Watch the video link below and I will pick up on my thoughts and feelings afterward.

Brittany Maynard

http://www.thebrittanyfund.org

Okay, after watching this beautiful womens video I think that she is personally a very brave person. I wonder where her faith lies, or if that is part of her life.

Having been in the same seat that she is currently in ,I will say this God ‘s peace and healing was given to me during this time. I am around 2.7 or so years out from my diagnosis day and feel great.

In my case where there is life, there is hope. And when our personal hope for quality of life ends than I will still hope for a beautiful eternal life with Christ.

When I first heard those words inoperable Gleo Blastoma Multiforme grade 4. I was not deterred from doing anything that could potentially safe my life. I said okay lets see what they can do with this, God’s got it.

I got as she mentioned very large from the steriod and had all of the meds,chemo and radiation etc. So, I understand that on a personal level. That pain is not fun.

Suffering :

My faith has tought me that suffering has a purpose, I do not like it either and I am sure Jesus did not relish his crusifiction either. But his sacrafice was for us to learn and to be saved.

I have learned during my journey here and witnessed people on their death beds and what they are dealing with. I have seen the effects on their families too. I have seen families and relationship healed and years of crap was gone. I saw children and families grow in strength through the process and I have seen the ill person, calm as they came closer because they too were healing their minds and souls. They accepted the situation. We all go through it, thats for sure.

What ever sufferings that I have had are brought to the cross and my graces I offer up for others. I will offer up mine for Brittany and family as well.

Her mom mentioned a word autonomous while describing here daughter. The definition is below.

autonomy

[aw-ton–uh-mee] Spell Syllables

Examples
Word Origin

noun, plural autonomies.

independence or freedom, as of the will or one’sactions:

the autonomy of the individual.

the state or condition of having independence or freedom, or of being autonomous; self-government, or the right of self-government:

The rebels demanded autonomy from Spain.

a self-governing community.

Origin

From what I have read and seen on this video, I have to assume that this life holds her treasure. Again, I sincerely mean this, Brittany Morgan has her God given right to do as she believes. It is called free will.

The way I look at this story is this, God wanted me to see this today

because I do not know how Brittany and her family feel about faith and God. It could be that Brittany was never exposed to God, Who really knows. How can we help ? I do have an option as do you .

We need to pray for her and her family. They look like such wondeful people. I know that Gods going to meet her too when her journey is complete. I know God loves her the same as he loves me.

She plans on ending her life next month Nov to end the pain.

So lets pray from healing for Brittany such as I have had in this moment.

Remember healing comes in different forms, physical, psychological, Spiritual and emotional. God knows our needs. We just need to pray.

It is the time of Miracles! Amen

For The Weekend ! Lots of Healthy Laughter

I have mentioned in the past on my posts that we have the gift of the Holy Spirit that resides within us to help us and to guide us during our lives here.

One very important aspect that we have to consider is what we expose our selves to. Our Eyes and ears are under an assault from all that is happening in our world.

The television, shock jocks on the radio, some of the movies and rediculous commercials that are practically x rated. The Launguage, is terrible.

You know, I am no prude.

prude

pro͞od/

noun

a person who is or claims to be easily shocked by matters relating to sex or nudity.

synonyms: puritan, prig, killjoy, moralist,pietist;

informalgoody-goody

“I never knew a boy to be such a prude”

But alot of what is going on is so immoral.

Over the years and when something would come on that was off color in one way or the other, I would say our kids are around and they should not see this stuff.

People do not realise what they are exposing themselves to. All kinds of spiritual mumbo jumbo and toil.

Back in the day, I use to watch some stuff on tv that my mom and dad would say was nonsence. Shut it off. But, my generation was not parked on a couch with a tv and 400 stations either. Add to this situation now all the different devices that are out there that allow people to stay connected and watch shows anywhere, anytime.

I am far from perfect. But, now I get a visceral responce if someting is on , tv, music, even nonsence talk about others whatever. I am a pro now at dealing with this circumstance, I just get up and seperate myself from that situation.

I do not judge, but this junk is not for me. It doesn’t enhance my mind, spirit or intellect.

If the Holy Spirit that resides in me was not in a place where I did not fill my mind with horror stories, sex and profanity then I could not have taken on the cancer diagnosis the way that God allowed me to. I spiritually would not have been prepared. I was filled with my desire for God so there was no room for junk.

Like the food that we eat for our bodies effects our physical health so too is that true for what we take in through our ears ,eyes, and actions. They can all be an affront to us Spiritually and mentally. And if we are listening to our Holy Sprit( voice within ) then we would know this. We get convincted.

You know, If you look you can find good stuff that is funny. One night I was at a friends and he said hey this guy is on and he is a riot. So, I sat down and he put it on and within 5 minutes he was laughing and I did not get it. There were too many F bombs coming. So, he finally asked me as I was getting out of the chair to leave the room and I just said its not for me.

I always think what would Jesus do?

I just know that Jesus would not sit there either.

Affront: an action or remark that causes outrage or offense.

“he took his son’s desertion as a personal affront”

synonyms:

insult, offense, indignity, slight, snub, put-down, provocation, injury;
