Only one cycle left!!!!

"...I do not look with disdain upon my weaknesses. I use them as an opportunity for God to display His powerful strength". 2nd Corinthians 12:10

I believe the weaknesses could be physical or spiritual or both. with tribulation we defend ourselves with the strength of Jesus, go through the storm, we are able to learn to have faith and to depend humbly in God's plans for our life.
Before I got sick, I thought I knew what faith was, and that I have lots of it...when the tribulation approached my doors I realized that stressing out, being anxious was lack of faith...I was not trusting God, just kept feeling pity for my self and asking God "Why me Lord"...now I look back and I can see part of his magnificent plan, through this storm He haves shaped me with a lot of love, and has given me the honor to share about Him with others.
One of the first things that come to my mind is when I woke up after my first brain surgery and being able to move my right arm, move my face on the right side, after my first check exam my neurosurgeon got in tears (he knew my beliefs cause I even pray for him) he said it was a miracle that I had complete control on the right side of my body cause during surgery they damaged me when taking the cancer tumor... next thing I know there is a bunch of doctors coming to see me, I was the miracle patient on the 7th floor... His power is shown in our weaknesses.
Today I got my 5th chemo, only one more to go!!!!! I am so exited!
The not too good news is that I believe cracked a tooth when eating peanuts, I had a lot of pain and took some pain medicine, but please help me pray that the dentist will be allowed to treat me and that it will be minor...honestly, although I am on the dental field, I am still afraid of dentist.
Also help me keep praying for my mom's visa so she can visit me.
Love you all,
Gods many blessings be upon you

Almost Done

"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace" Romans 15:13

I've been reading chapter 6 and 7 of Romans last night; and it is comforting to know that even Paul (specifically chosen to spread the word of Jesus), he failed many times, but the Lord picked him up...during those verses you read about his fight against his flesh and doing what he is not to do and not doing what he is to... and that is so familiar...but the Lord never left his side.
In a way this is encouraging to me, through this disease I don't count the many blessings I received from God every time... I have times that I only complain and lack trust in our Jesus, I have feelings of insecurity (feelings that absolutely not come from my Father God), the more insecure I feel, the more likely I am to fail and sin.
The good news is that even that is the case Jesus does not leave me or forsake me, He is always there for me, to help me reason and repent.
Cycle 4 is done! I had to receive a transfusion this time, but I am ok now, and thank you Lord for the person that donated the blood.
I have 2 more cycles to go, October 6th should be the last one (God allowing)... I am so excited!!!
My mom wants to come visit me, but it all depends if she is able to get a U.S. visa, please help me pray that the visa is given to her so that I can see her again.
With love in Christ,
Sofia
