make Jesus famous

I received an email from a friend who has been praying for me and my journey. He said something that I really resonated with. He said, “I've been praying for you. I am confident Jesus will be made famous as you go through your cancer.”
I thought- ya, that’s what I want. I want Jesus to be famous- for Jesus to get all the glory for what He does and how He walks me through this journey. So, as you pray for me and my healing, please pray that Jesus will be made “famous” in and through the journey.

 We went to Minnesota to see our daughters and grandchildren this week. It was the first time I was able to have face time with my girls since the cancer returned. It was good for me to see them doing well with it. Two of my grandchildren made me a personally hand decorated journal, because according to them, “Papa needs a journal to process his illness”. Wow, what a gift. It sits on my desk so I can jot down feelings, thoughts, God moments any time I want to or need to. Pray that God will use this journal powerfully as I walk this out.

Thanks for caring and praying.
