Things can be just great.

This might be an alarming change for those of you who have been keeping up with my blog, but I'm really really happy. I guess the funk and stress of school and midterms has just vanished due to a number of things, but mostly I just really am lucky to have the life I do and to be able to experience the love I do. I love my Vickery very much, but more than that I love Jesus Christ with a fierce passion. I won't be ashamed of my Lord and the love I have for him. I feel so great to know that he loves me and that no matter how bad it gets he'll never leave my side. I just want to take this time and publicly before everyone who reads this say that Jesus Christ is the best person I've ever known. I can't adequately describe with words how freeing loving Christ is. I am completely taken care of and completely safe in the arms of Christ.

During this summer I found out that my mom has stage 3 ovarian cancer and the doctors only gave her a 20 percent chance to live even with chemo. I immediately got everyone I could get my hands and voice on to start praying for my mom's healing from the cancer and for her salvation in Christ. I was working at a Christian summer camp and had the whole camp praying and all my friends homes and churches praying for my mom and the situation. I even had some of the speakers who came to Fort Caswell that summer praying for my mom and do you know what? I talked to her the other day and after 4 chemo treatments her protein count went from 1200 to 24. That's amazing! Anyways, when I found out she had cancer me and my brothers and Dad drove to Florida and that whole trip I could feel the prayers of everyone supporting my mom and my family. I could see the prayer working and God working through the prayers. My mom gave her life to Christ while I was there. It was great!

I guess all I'm trying to say is that I seriously love Jesus and just wanted to take some time to tell him and to let others see too. I love you Lord and I feel safe in your arms. I trust you and take pride in knowing you, I can't wait to meet with you face to face one day and be able to embrace you.

Anyone who is reading this that has faith please pray for my mom, while she is getting better we're still not out of the hot water yet. The treatments have caused her to lose her hair and a lot of weight. She feels like she doesn't look good anymore, but she is the most beautiful woman in the world and I just ask all of you to please pray for my mom and family. What if it was your mom?

Well it's getting late and it's not quite fall break yet so I still have to go to class tommrow so I'm gonna go hit the hay.
