My grandfather, who was diagnosed with Colon Cancer in late June of this year, went in to the hospital this morning to have some tests to check the status of the cancer in his body. The results would help them to see what direction they need to take as far as the chemo goes (the chemo makes him very sick). Well, our prayers have been answered: there is not a sign of cancer in his body and he no longer has to take the chemo! Praise God! My aunt said he got up and hugged a very shocked doctor and he and my grandmother were just absolutely jumping for joy. I mean they really were up on their feet with praise! The doctors will continue to monitor his health but he doesn't have to go back for another test until the end of January 2006. I wish I had a picture of them to put on here!!!! I'll have to get one. Thank you so much for all the prayers. Please continue to pray for his health and sing praise when you speak to God of my grandparents, Conrad and Patsy Scott.
This just shows me how incredibly great God is. He takes care of us, and is willing to take all of our energy draining worries, but he won't without us handing it all to him. God is a gentleman, he won't take anything without our permission.

I love your statement that God is a gentleman. Think about it, gentle man. He really is that, Nicole! Thanks for that post. I am SO happy everything went well. Stick a pic of your grandmother and grandfather up there so we can see!
That is so exciting! That makes me really really happy in this moment.
I can think of some things God has taken from me without my permissions, but looking back I"d say they needed to be taken. In the moment, I would never have handed them over. But I know what you mean, that God is about choice and is about love. When we choose to give him our burdens, he rewards us b/c we trusted in him, not ourselves. Death and disease seem to put that stuff in perspective!
and way to push the hope concert, miss hope! i'll see you there!
