Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives!
A few weeks ago, Miss A and I were at Kohls when she found a toy sewing machine. She desperately wanted to take it home with her. She broke into tears when I said she needed to wait.
Fast forward to this week and she again asked if we could go to the “brown store” and buy the “sew mo chine”. I caved. All the way home she held the box and sang a little song, “I got a sew mo chine, a sew mo chine, a sew mo chine”.
She was so full of joy that she couldn’t help but burst out into song. I felt the exact same way this morning during our sunrise service. I just wanted to sing like no one was listening. Why? Because HE LIVES!!!
Tomorrow morning at 9am, I’m getting my port put in, followed by my first round of radiation at noon. Tuesday will be my first round of chemo. I’ll admit, that I’m a tad nervous. My body typically fights with all its worth to expel any foreign object. That’s good for slivers, bad for IV’s and the such. It’s the whole reason that I never had an IV stay in longer than 2 days when I had Arden. It makes me wonder about how it will respond to the port. Then we have radiation and chemo. Although, both are low dose and won’t cause my hair to fall out, there are still side effects.
What does Easter have to do with chemo and radiation? What kind of “bunny trail” am I leading you down?
This morning, as we sang He Lives, I found myself strangely calm. Those words were just what I needed right when I needed it. Funny, how that “works out”, isn’t it? I can face tomorrow. I have no fear. The future is already planned out by the one who holds me in his hand. All because HE LIVES.
