The Halfway Point🚵🏼

"But those who wait for the Lord’s help find renewed strength;
they rise up as if they had eagles’ wings,
they run without growing weary,
they walk without getting tired."
~Isaiah 40:31 NET

My chemo treatments started in early October so I have now officially passed the halfway mark. Reaching the mid point can be one of the hardest parts in the journey. It's easier to run life's race when things are exciting and new or on the other end when the thrill of reaching the finish line is in view, but the middle mile, where life is routine can try even the most courageous soul.
Please pray for strength so I can recuperate and replenish my whole being in order to embark on the second leg of this journey. Preparing for what lies ahead takes much prayer, "patient continuance," and the power of God.

Day by day I'm getting closer to finishing my rounds of chemo and I have been blessed to have you as traveling companions who will walk that extra mile with me.

Who will walk a mile with me
Along life's weary way?
A friend whose heart has eyes to see
The stars shine out o'er the darkening lea,
And the quiet rest at the end o' the day,—
A friend who knows, and dares to say,
The brave, sweet words that cheer the way
Where he walks a mile with me.
-Henry Van Dyke
