Every Sunday I’m committing my blog to be “Simply Blessed Sunday”! That means I will be posting about the blessings that God has bestowed upon me and my family. I’d love for you to do the same as we all need a reminder from time to time of just how blessed we really are. If you’d like to join me in doing this, just copy the code under my Simply Blessed Sundays button and place it in the widget section on your blog. Oh and don’t forget to sign up on the list below my post and link your blog so we can all enjoy reading about your blessings as well!
With Devin being sick the last few days, it’s really made me realize how very blessed I am that all of my children are healthy. There are so many parents who would love for their child’s illness only to be a fever and some throwing up.
Friday night after I put the little ones to bed, I was surfing facebook and came across one of my old schoolmates. Her name is Sherry. She just recently found out she had Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma- in layman’s terms: eye cancer. She tried treatments for a few months, but last month decided to have her eye removed. She is currently going through radiation and unfortunately just found out her 2 1/2 year old son also has cancer. He will be going into surgery to remove a softball size tumor from his kidney this Tuesday. To read more of her and her little guys story click HERE . Please join me in praying for their healing.
So needless to say, her story and others like hers definitely brought Devin’s illness into perspective. It also made me feel bad for complaining about it on facebook when Sherry didn’t complain once. She just thanked everyone for their prayers~ What an awesome woman of God she is!
Thank you God for my healthy children and the fact that David and I are also healthy. It’s so easy to take things like your health for granted. Thank you for reminding us how very blessed we are.
