I am sorry I have been too busy to write in a few days. Shonna and I decided to go to Ft. Campbell and visit with our son Jonathan, our daughter-in-law Amy, and the sunshine in our life, our grandaugher Addyson. Addyson is 16 months old and after having 3 sons and no daughters, God smiled on our lives and gave us a beautiful little grandaughter. Hearing her say Papa is better medicien than any doctor could ever prescribe. We went up Friday evening and came back on Saturday evening. Shonna drove all the way up and all the way back. On this Monday morning, 3 days short of our 33rd anniversary, I want to say that I love Shonna more than I love my own life. She has been the rock in our marriage. Being married to a pastor isn't always the easiest thing to do. I have leaned on her when I didn't have anybody else to lean on outside of my wonderful Lord.
Yesterday was a wondeful day at Batley. The Lord blessed my soul by reminding me that He is still God and that He has everything under control. My battle with cancer is going to be a tough battle, but I'm not fighting for victory--I'm fighting from victory. No matter what the outcome, I have already won because I am "more than a conqueror through him that loved me." Going through chemotherapy has caused me to not be able to fellowship with the dear people at Batley. I have to stay on the stage and it is hard not shaking hands or hugging necks. Even though chemotherapy separates me from fellowshiping with others, it does not keep me from fellowshipping with God. All during this battle with cancer, I have been blessed by the Lord hugging me at all times with his love.
Luke
