Antidote for Worry
"Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto Him be glory..." Ephesians 4:20-21

Have you ever worried about something only to discover later that there wasn't a thing to worry about? That's kind of how I feel today. When Malcom was having "new pain" that had not been there before, I began to worry. I tried not to, but that nagging thought of "what if" began to bother me again. He had the CT Scan done and the initial report from the doctor was there was nothing to worry about. But I was almost afraid to be too hopeful. Malcom, on the other hand, decided to ignore the pain and carry on. To my surprise, this morning he told me it wasn't hurting anymore! At the clinic we received the complete CT scan report and it shows improvement in many areas.

I am reminded of a verse in Philippians that says, "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God." (Phil. 4:6) Even when I was tempted to be anxious, there were those who rallied to my aid, taking the request to God and He responded.

If you could see Malcom today, your comment might be like many others who say how good he looks. He has gained back about 20 pounds and really does look so much better than before. Today he began his 6th chemo treatment which marks the halfway point for those. Keep the prayers going on his behalf. We are finding that God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly more than we could ever ask or think. To Him be glory!

As one of Malcom's nurses on 7C, I wanted you both to know what a blessing reading from your site has been! I am thrilled and praising God for the good reports, and will continue to pray for you all daily.
