Every morning I try to read the daily excerpt from "Streams in the Desert" and do an entry in my prayer journal. This morning I was reading from Mark 35-40 and giggled that James and John asked for Jesus to do them a favor - just for them to sit as his right and left hand in heaven. Talk about coming boldly before the Lord! And Jesus replied that those places are not his to give. After laughing, though, I have to ask myself what the lesson is here. Do I come boldly before God like that? I think I do. I've asked for a lot in prayer these last few weeks and after reading this story, I will continue to do so =).
Today I have a lung function test to get a baseline lung capacity - apparently my chemo can have a nasty side effect of lung scarring. Oh, and congestive heart failure. I feel like my body is no longer my own - I'm giving it up to the medical field for a season. Later this afternoon I am going to my naturopath to get started on helping my body get rid of toxins and dead cells that chemo will leave me with.
My specific prayer right now is that I don't have a horrendous reaction to chemo on Tuesday and that my bone marrow biopsy comes back clean.
