Winning the Battle

Another day,another trial.
Another chance to go another mile.
The Lord has been with me all the while.
It's because of Him that I now can smile.

The word breast cancer was such a scary thing.
Day after day,and test after test it gets more frightening.
With treatments behind me I can see a new beginning.
And with the Lord's help I feel this battle I'm winning.

People all over were praying for me.
And without Valley Baptist,I don't know where I'd be.
With their prayers and support they helped me see.
That believing in God my fears would flee.

I've had lots of help from family and friends.
And I've often wondered when this would all end.
I soon learned where I had to begin.
I had to trust in the Lord before I could mend.

I'm walking slower these days,and I take my time.
I read my Bible to ease my mind.
I see things differently,I'm no longer blind.
And I have no fear of being left behind.

I still have pain and lots more tests.
But I'll keep my faith and do my best.
I feel I'll be ready when it's my time to rest.
With my Lord and family,I am richly blessed.

You can beat cancer, but alot of it has to do with your attitude towards the battle. Through prayer and faith and God's will and hands you can go through the storm with help; and God can see you through.
