WHAT'S NEW AND WHAT'S ALWAYS THE SAME

As I was saying, "the tumour almost certainly IS cancer" and "the CT-scan will tell if this IS in fact an Early Detection Story." Although I am still waiting for more tests and the results of those tests -- and I see now that the main thing I am called to do in these early days is to wait -- the results I HAVE just received confirm that I AM a man with cancer and that this is NOT an early detection story. So this is in no way a small adventure and the stakes are just about as high as they could be. Deb (my very lovely wife) and I remain big fans of the peace of God that can guard the hearts and minds of God's people and the joy of the Lord that can be our strength. Very recently, I noticed these two ideas in Psalm 84:11 (ESV). "For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favour and honour. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly." The Lord Jesus Christ, the Sun of Righteousness, IS our joy. And his peace DOES protect us as well as any shield.
