Pss. 30:3 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the
grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
So What Now…
As I sit here thinking of the losses from cancer, I myself
wonder what’s next for me.
My uncle (by marriage) is fighting the fight diligently and
I know it won’t be long before I get the unawaited call that drops me to my
knees yet again. I lost my grandmother
to lung cancer over forty years ago and now my aunt just recently succumbed, I
watched (from afar) my dad do battle with throat cancer and my nephew
testicular cancer, and I also remember my mother’s aunt dying from cancer, so
where does that leave me in the line of targets for cancers next victim?
I’m sure there are more members of the family that I’m
forgetting because it is quite obvious cancer has targeted my gene pool. Am I
to sit here in line and wait for cancer to tap me on the shoulder with a smile
and say, ‘You’re next, sweetie.’
I’m not a health nut by any means. I know right from wrong
and I know what is good for my body and what is not good for my body. I don’t
go out of my way to overindulge in food carelessly and that has helped ME with
any health and weight issues in my lifetime. I don’t consume poison (alcohol)
and although I try to keep my brain in working order, I believe I fail
miserably.
Does this mean that cancer will pass me by? I’m not blind to
the fact that it has no preference in where or when it strikes. All of us are
most certainly guaranteed some health crisis in our lifetime that will either
make us or break us in its procession of consuming the living.
I’m not riddled with paranoia instead I’m riddled with life.
I wake every day and ask, what can I do for you, Lord? And He doesn’t say go out
and share what other people have to say about me, share what YOU say about me
and experience in YOUR life. And basically that is what I do. When I share a
scripture from the Bible, I’m not pointing at you and telling you that you need
to read and believe this because * I * do. I’m sharing it with you as an
explanation for something I’m going through and allowing God and scripture to
guide ME down the path.
I’m not a very knowledgeable person but I am a very wise
person. I’ll take wisdom over knowledge any day. Knowledge is book-smart wisdom
is heart-smart. Not all knowledgeable people are heart smart. I mean they know
things because they’ve read about it somewhere, shared it so that you know
they’ve read it somewhere but sincerely do not have the wisdom to share it
through experience, only what was read.
I’ve come to the conclusion that cancer has infected
humanity, not just physically but mentally and spiritually as well. It has made
its way into unsuspecting hosts and breeds like fleas; where there is one flea
(cell) you can bet there are more right behind it multiplying.
I live and learn from experience not from something that was
spoon-fed me via words on a page. Humanity is being eaten away and unsuspecting
hosts are breeding the lies, deceit and corruption. I say unsuspecting because
they believe they’re doing the right thing, but then again, they’re only going
by the knowledge that was fed them, not by anything they witnessed or
experienced first hand.
The biggest snowstorm of the century was a misleading
adventure that hosts wanted to feed you. Every year the Farmer’s Almanac has
been proven false, every day the weathermen appear to be liars in disguise,
religious scholars are pretending to be scientist and vice versa, liars are
lying, cheaters are cheating and killers are killing. People are willing to
believe wholeheartedly the things they read.
