Gotta Have Faith

I'm going to start blogging again. Hopefully the posts following this one will be more joyful.

My last post was written 7 weeks ago about my friend Erin B.'s celebration for being in remission for 1 year. Sadly, we got the news yesterday that the Leukemia is back. Erin's family keeps a blog http://blonshine.blogspot.com/ if you would like to follow her progress. Please keep Erin and the Blonshine's in your prayers. We can never fully understand the ways of God, but I know He is in this.

I used this verse in my last post:

"It is good to say thank you to the Lord to sing praise...Every morning tell Him, 'Thank you for your kindness,' and every evening rejoice in all His faithfulness...You have done so much for me, O Lord. No wonder I am glad! I sing for joy!" -Psalm 92

I sing God's praises through good times and now during the difficult times. God has done so much for me and for Erin and I believe He is going to continue to work through this situation. Sit down and read some of the Bible and you will read stories of God healing people of leprosy, raising people from the dead, bringing vision to the blind and allowing the lame to walk. Those aren't fairy tales of the past, but those stories really happened. Those stories are still happening everyday because the WORD IS LIVING, it is the TRUTH. The God in those stories is the SAME GOD I worship. I have faith He is going to heal Erin.
