Graduation Day

While many have children graduating high school & college this time of year I have a different type of graduation.  Today I finished 8 wks. of radiation for Prostate Cancer.  With faith I continue with Chemotherapy for at least 90 days.  

This journey started with diagnosis in March, 2020 & has been a long road including little pain or discomfort but plenty of worry as well as fatigue from the treatments.  I think of myself as a God Loving Christian but have learned through this experience that I always can pray more & used my daily drive to the Oncologist office & on the treatment table to do just that.  At first I was angry & wanted to know, "Why?" I then began to pray for healing, for wisdom for the medical staff and to be able to watch our daughter have a child and be able to spoil him/her.  Those that know me best know that I have always been a "fixer" with little that I can't control.  God has taught me otherwise with this experience & that is probably the answer to my "Why?"  

1 Peter 5:6  Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you.
