Thankful Thursday UPDATE

|
I first want to say "THANK YOU" to everyone that commented on my Thankful Thursday post offering encouraging words, support, and most of all, your prayers. With each comment I read that day, I felt more and more uplifted and confident that, regardless of the diagnosis, it would all be okay. It was in God's hands and I had support from so very many. Thank you all!

Now, it's time for some praising! I went back in this afternoon for a 2nd mammogram and the report was that everything is A-OK! What the radiologist saw on Monday was a calcium buildup and there is no need at all for concern. I thought they might even want to see me sooner than in a year, but nope, there's no reason to go back in until next summer.

This week has shown me many things for which I am thankful. To mention a couple, I have been reminded of how supporting ALL my Christian brothers and sisters are and how they are ALWAYS there for me and my family. I've been reminded that when I completely turn it all over to God that He does provide the comfort and peace that we so desire. And, I've also been reminded what I loving and supportive husband God has given to me. He's been by my side all week. He's a rock and provided nothing but calm and loving support.

Thanks again for all your prayers and encouragement. I don't think I could ever truly express in words how much it means to me to know that you are all so incredibly supportive.

I pray each of you has a very blessed weekend!

That is good news Melanie! I am a worrier too! And God uses those times of panic to draw me to Himself. I always have the same pattern, freak out, get upset, pray, seek, cry out to Jesus, get frustrated, and then the peace of God comes upon me. And each time this has happened everything has turned out fine. So I can relate! :)
