Family

We all have family. Husbands, children, parents, grandparets. Every single one of them has their own issues and struggles they are going through. Because we are related to them, we share in their struggles as well.
My family is no exception. My daughter who is turning 32 this week is not married. She has had many boyfriends in the past. As a matter of fact, her most recent boyfriend came back into to town to meet with her to beg her to come back! She is not ready to do that. He hurt her and she is not ready to commit. I is hard to watch her deal with this. Should she take him back or let him go? God has someone just for her. At one point she so desperatly wanted to get married, now she's not so sure!

(Here we are together)
Then there is my husband. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer last February. In May he had surgery to have his prostate removed. Since then the cancer has returned. He has had hormone therepy. This is to stop the testerone production which the cancer cells feed off of. He has had side effects from the therepy like hot flashes, depression, fatigue. This has been my struggle too.  Every night before we go to sleep, I pray for him to be healed. We are trusting the Lord for a miracle.
