Strike 7.
Today was strike 7 against chemo. The lucky number 7....
LUCKY in a lot of ways.... for starters, the chemo chaperone was brother Billy. And they didn't get ejected from the game. Even when Billy was tickling coach's feet.
He even escorted him in style... with a lucky #7 decorated on the car.
LUCKY that his lab work was looking great today and much improved!
LUCKY that his neice, Annie Stewart, was in Atlanta and was a surprise lunch date.
LUCKY that he was surprised by sweet friends (the Skinners)visiting this afternoon and bringing dinner.
LUCKY that he continues to feel relatively well, all things considering.
LUCKY that he was present today when the news interviewed the OG coach on his reflections regarding UTs big win!
To quote the famous Tris Speaker “luck is the great stabilizer in baseball.”
This had me thinking and reflecting on what the Bible says about “luck.” As Christians we believe that God is in control of all events, and that nothing is a matter of chance, or luck. Therefore God is OUR great stabilizer. We have the strength to face tomorrow because we are stable in our Faith. And we know that we are “lucky winners” no matter the outcome….
So… pancreatic cancer…. we say to you, “better LUCK next time…” (it ain’t happening here!)
Please join us in praying specifically for the upcoming repeat scans which will take place next week at The Mayo Clinic. Pray for clear results that read as specific findings and not suspicious findings. We continue to believe and pray for miracles and full healing in Jesus name. Would you pray also for coach to have REST of mind, body, and spirit…. Especially as this much anticipated scan is lurking around the corner. May he find REST the days ahead.
Thanks for all the ongoing love, support, prayers, and encouragement. We have the best fans in the stands!
So, let’s keep playing ball and praising the Lord!
