Hello my dearest Friends. Its currently August 5th, 2010. Its been a very busy past couple of weeks for me as I have been working, serving, and trying to live my very fast-paced life. Today my friend and co-worker Tori brought up the topic of journalism. Which happens to be her passion, she said to me that she wants to start a blog, but she has no idea what she wants to consistently write about. To me a Blog does not need to have consistency. I believe that a proper definition of a blog, is what ever you make it. That's the beauty of blogging, we don't have a certain outline, or spread sheet to follow. There are no set topics to write about. :] That being said, I have decided to start blogging again. I will start with a praise report that I have to share. A week ago I took flight to Minneapolis Minnesota, to visit world renowned thyroid cancer expert Dr. Ian Hay's.. Dr. Hays has been my doctor for four years now. I go back once a year for three days to have a series of tests done. Every year I end up coming back with the same prognosis. As long as Dr hays has been my doctor, he has been watching a small spot of cancer in my lungs. Now before I go any further you should not be alarmed because the size of this spot is smaller that the tip of a sewing needle. For Three years now he has stated that it has not grown or reduced in size. Thus leaving me with the unsatisfied answer of, "You STILL have cancer, but the good news is that its not spreading or doing anything". Now even though this is fairly positive news I was always looking for the answer more along these lines.. "Dale! Your cancer free! go have fun!" lol Well I am happy to say that this year I got that answer! I have prayed to God for healing, for a fresh start, and God has answered my prayers. According to my Doctor, I am as healthy as can be! For anyone who reads this, I would hope that through this blog you would find that putting your trust in God is something that we all need to do. When I was diagnosed with cancer I accepted that fact that this disease was in my body and there was physically nothing I could do about it, however, the one thing I could do, is put every bit of love and trust into God as I could. That's exactly what I did. I try to live my life to the fullest and serve God through the church. God has used me as a disciple and I have shared my testimony to others to encourage them to keep there heads up, trust God, and stay on the right path. I hope that all of my friends will do that same by knowing they are in good hands. God has a mighty plan for you...so let him take over and put that plan into action. :] thanks for reading!

That's amazing!! I was reading it and felt this sense of awe at how our God is. At the same time it's not surprising that He heals. How cool that we can be both in awe and at the same time expecting that our God will and does great things! Congrats. Keep spreading the testimony. Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha Daniel! thanks man! means alot! and Jason. I fully plan on spreading my testimony to the people who might be going through something similar! God is Good!
