His grace is greater than my sin.....

Well, today was hard day. It was my first day that I really didn't feel very strong. I know everyone is telling me how strong I am, but I really didn't feel that today. We went to the surgeon this morning. Going in to the appoinment, I was feeling pretty positive. I know that all the news has been positive. All the lymphnodes were clear, the margins were clear. Nothing could be better. But, when I heard the Dr. say the word chemotherapy, I felt the strength just get sucked out of me. I know that I should be happy for everything else, and thankful that I have the treatment available. I just needed to have a little pity party. I guess that I just need time to process it all and grieve a little. Maybe it's vain, but I will get over it. The scripture that the Lord gave to me today came from a comment posted that I hadn't seen before today. It just jumped out at me.

James 1:12 Blessed is the woman who perserveres under trial because when she has stood the test, she will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.

Welcome to Jen's Journey of Faith

If you are looking at this blog, you probably already know that I was diagnosed with Stage 2 Invasive Breast Cancer on July 1, 2009. It came as an absolute shock to me and my family. I love the Lord Jesus Christ, he is my Savior and I wouldn't be able to go on without my personal relationship with Him! His is a peace that passes all understanding! And there is know way on earth I can come to understand why I got cancer at the age of 37. But, the fact is I did and I intend to make the most out of this experience. God has chosen me to endure this and I consider it an honor that he found me strong enough to be able to beat this! He doesn't give us anything we can't handle! He must have a lot of faith in me! I named this blog Jen's Journey of Faith, because that's exactly what this is. The only way I can complete this journey is by complete faith in Him! Let the Journey begin..........
