Journaling Reads: In October of 1994, I realized that I was walking through this “one” life I had been blessed with “defeated, sick, let me rephrase that, I wasn’t only “sick” but I was literally “dying“, killing myself with my choices!

It was fall, my favorite time of year and when I should have been getting ready for the holidays and looking forward to the Halloween party my two best friends and I hosted every year I was slapped in the face with a diagnosis of cancer - I had found a bump on the inside of my leg that turned out to be a huge cancerous tumor that required immediate surgery to be removed.

Needless to say, I was scared, angry, confused - and those are only the emotions I can put into words. I was 38 years old, and my mind was flooded with the horrid memories of losing my Mom to leukemia at the young age of 42 - she was also diagnosed at the age of 38 - I was devastated. But somewhere deep inside I just “knew” it wasn’t the end but the beginning and now I understand that it was the Holy Spirit inside of me encouraging me not to give up. This experience, without a doubt, was my “defining moment” when I began to seek the Lord with my whole heart and when my life changed forever!

I like to think of it like this, “Before my personal relationship with God my life was void of color - I lived a black and white existence with shades of grey.
