LOVE it. I'm actually in the middle of writing a post about those words from the Bible that people say "do not fear," "do not worry." and what they mean exactly.

Schlegel (Kristin Mullenix's aunt) Fri, 25 Jan 2008 03:04:09 +0000 http://www.springofjoy.org/the_library/hurdles#comment-327 Angie, I will pray especially for you tomorrow with your last chemo. I know that you will still need to recover from its immediate affects on your body, but I am glad that you and your body are ready for it. I found myself to be very emotional during the months of my treatments, and especially in my worship experiences and my cancer support group at church. Those were special times of sharing with others who were struggling themselves and those who were struggling with me. You will never lose the feeling that life is a precious gift and that the Giver of Life is your Heavenly Father - the only Source of life. He will always be as accessible to you later as He is now, and just as precious. And He will guide you through the adjustments that you will continually make to deal with this whole experience. I am praying for your complete recovery. Thanks you for sharing so deeply with all of us. Love you, Aunt BA Angie, I will pray especially for you tomorrow with your last chemo.

I found a bunch of my old journals today while cleaning and one of them was a gorgeous tapestry journal you gave me on my 15th birthday. In it you wrote The Valley of Vision. It made me so thankful for the foundation of truth you and I were given. I was thinking how little our young hearts knew of this valley of vision then and how blessed we are to see our Saviour so much clearer now. I wish I could be there with you tomorrow. I will be with you in prayer and spirit. I love you. Moni Kaye Lord, high and holy, meek and lowly, Thou hast brought me to the valley of vision, where I live in the depths but see Thee in the heights; hemmed in by mountains of sin I behold Thy glory. Let me learn by paradox that the way down is the way up, that to be low is to be high, that the broken heart is the healed heart, that the contrite spirit is the rejoicing spirit, that the repenting soul is the victorious soul, that to have nothing is to possess all, that to bear the cross is to wear the crown, that to give is to receive, that the valley is the place of vision. Lord, in the daytime stars can be seen from deepest wells, and the deeper the wells the brighter Thy stars shine; let me find Thy light in my darkness, Thy life in my death, Thy joy in my sorrow, Thy grace in my sin, Thy riches in my poverty, Thy glory in my valley.
