John 3:16-17

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

"My Jesus, My shelter, source of power and strength, let my self never stop to worship you"
The good Lord keeps working in my life, every step, every thing, and I thank Him, defenetely I am not good at taking decisions, so I am so glad He does for me. Honestly from my heart is not easy what I am going through, I am scared, and I wish everything be like before, working my normal hours to help paying my beautiful place and taking care of my Bethany, it is not easy to rely completely in someone, but I am learning to rely on God on everything I do, I had an important lesson to learn, and He is teaching me...also I am overwhelmed and humble that God through this is using my life to touch others, what a blessing, what an honor, He is so good.
Today we went to the house of good friends (Ray's family tradition) to spend prior Christmas at their house (they always play Mr. Clause and Mrs. Clause at DQ) the hummel's, and they were fill with love and glad to see me and Bethany. Best present received, spend time with my Bethany.
and tomorrow I am looking forward to spend Christmas with her.
Tonight we went to church of Christ and sing Christmas and Christian songs with Bethany and Ray (which he has been really good to me, and just showed compassion and care, thank you Ray) it was so nice to hear my daughter sing Holly Night next to me... It really does not matter where you go, God knows when you look to hear from him and when you want to worship him, He is a good God and understands .... the service was nice.... talking about the German soldiers in 1914's when Christmas came they stop fighting the English and French and instead start singing Christmas Carols and even exchange goods with their "enemies" since it was Christmas.... shouldn't we do the same, every day? in reality God came to this world to save us, and we should celebrate Christmas all year long... he came in a humble way as a baby that needs to be taking care of... He being a King came in the humblest way and knows pain, sorrow, He knows how we feel, cause he has gone through it...what an awesome God, being a King, came to our world and got to know about us by going through what we go through....
I don't know how in the world I will be able to go through this without Him.
Prayers request: that my Bethany gets better she has a bad cold...I have been using a mask to protect myself from getting her cold, but I need u to pray about it please... I start radiation on Monday, so I need to be healthy.
Also, God has provided me with spiritual family to go to Gainesville, I am receiving the treatment in Shands and Staying at the American Cancer Society Lodge for free, the only thing is that I cannot stay by myself, their policy is that you need someone staying with you, otherwise they kick you out and you have to pay your own hotel... (which for me is out of the question) the lodge is for free for me and my companion... so far I have Ray staying with me the first days, then my sister Lizzie for 4 days, then, my sister in Christ Teresa and Lisa Dubreuil, so from the 5 weeks of treatment I need about 3 weeks are covered, but I still need God to lift more people up that will be willing to come to Gainesville and stay with me for whatever days they can to complete my 5 week radiation treatment. Please pray for it, I know the Lord has plans already for me, so I am not really worried, He will work someone out.
Love you all, I will keep you updated as long as our awesome good, keeps giving me the energy...
Merry Christmas to you all! Jesus is the reason for the season! all praises and glory to Him!

  1. Just want you to know we're thinking of you and praying for you. We'll keep your needs in prayer as well, trusting that God will provide the right care. God is strong and He is loving, and we lean into His great sustaining power at times like this.
    Jesus be with you Sis!

  2. Praying the radiation treatment went well today. I really enjoy reading your news on how the Lord has provided for you, and I am sure he will continue to do so. Love & hugs, Sofia.
