In my journey with cancer I have found it difficult to find encouraging things concerning cancer issues. There were times when I was searching for positive information and wasn't successful. My hope is to help people going through challenging times in their lives by encouraging them to maintain a positive attitude no matter what they are facing <<<<< even >>>>> if it is cancer!!!
Stare at God glance at your problems

How we react to life situations makes such a difference. Have you ever noticed that some people seem to sail through life and don't seem to have emotional ups and downs they just seem steady, while othere people are constantly up and down like a rollercoaster ride. They are always reacting to situations. I have learned we cannot control certain things from happening in our lives but we can determine how we will respond or react in it!!!! This past year my response to my news that the cancer had spread and was more aggressive left me wondering why had this happened ,I didn't understand and it didn't make sense to any of us. Once I changed my thinking, and focused on things like, God is with me and I can trust "Him" even if I don't understand . "All things work together for good to those who love God and those who are called according to "His" purpose!!! How I reacted to my situation changed. I know longer tried to figure it out, or tried fighting against what was happening. I just embraced the fact that God was with me and "He would bring me through. I heard this said yrs. ago life is 10 percent circumstances and 90 percent how we respond or react to it.
