A Different Kind of Journey

My thoughts keep flitting to “where I should be right now” if I had left on schedule.  But…that was not to be.  Over the past few years God has taken me on some personal journeys.  One journey in particular was learning how to live in the moment.  That was something I could not do for many years of my life.  Do I  have it mastered?  Perhaps not, but I am so much more content living in the present of each moment I live than I was in the past.

Tomorrow, Monday March 2nd is an important day for me.  My husband and I will see the surgeon who will give us the results of my breast biopsy on the two growths growing inside me.  Will they be malignant?  That is a question I cannot help wonder about.  And WONDER is the operative word in this sentence.  I have not been worried, upset, sleepless, or discouraged.  Worrying about something I have no control over only robs me of my current joy.  I choose to think positive, believe positive, and trust in God’s plan for my life as I live in this moment.  This moment is the only time I actually live and I will not squander it with worry.

I will send out an update tomorrow.  This is a different kind of journey than I thought I would be taking at this time but day by day it will unfold and I will live each day to the fullest regardless the diagnosis I receive on Monday.  Everyone has a different journey, a different adventure and when you have the Lord with you , you are never alone and never need fear.  How awesome is that!
