Jesus Will Wreck Your Life

Jesus Will Wreck Your Life Today

Here is a message for all of Creation
The tears that cease to flow today 
Come from the profound realization 
His great love will always find a way

You may be lost and wandering astray
The mountain of broken and so many sins
This darkness you feel is just another day
Always looking for quick fixes and wins

Maybe trusting others has made you wary 
Your heart is shattered beyond repair
The darkness overwhelming and scary 
And your shame has grown too big to bear

If this is the face of your daily strife 
He can destroy this sad existence
Jesus will completely wreck your old life 
And build one of hope-filled persistence

Jesus will wreck your life today

He will seek you out and pursue you
This is a God who will never stop the chase
You may run and evade but He knows you
And Jesus has more than love He gives grace

Jesus will wreck your life today

He will find you in the corners of darkness
He will surround you in the battle you fight
He will hold you when you feel all is a mess
His heart is seeking you, morning and night 

Jesus will wreck your life today

He will tear down the walls you have built 
The ones that keep the message of fear within
He will pick you up where you have fallen or knelt 
To pour out your pain, your darkness, your sin 

Jesus will wreck your life today

When you see His grace is already there 
You do not have to lift a finger, just let Him in
A message of forgiveness His scars will share 
For a new life inside of you may now begin 

Jesus will wreck your life today 

He will show you hope that is not just a word
He will change your view of the world around 
His voice of compassion is the greatest you've heard
For your life will never be the same once Jesus is found 

Jesus will wreck your life today

He will give you the kingdom view 
The one that breathes new life into your heart 
And forgives and forgets the old you 
For when you are His you have a clean new start

Jesus will wreck your life every single day
If you let Him hold you through the pain and sorrow
Turn to Him in adoration and pray 
Jesus, I am yours, so wreck my life today

Buella (cancer) Has Spread

Buella was entirely removed along with five lymph nodes and all the breast tissue they could remove on both sides. The tissues and tumor were sent for pathological testing. The report came back and was not what we hoped for.  Buella has spread to the lymphovascular system, lymph nodes, and tissue around the nodes. Buella was also less than 1 mm away from the chest wall, so cancer cells are likely in the chest wall too. The tumor grade was thought to be a Grade 1 before surgery (not aggressive), and has now been determined to be a Grade 3 (most aggressive and has the highest recurrence rate).  The news was hard to receive as I was praying for it to be all contained in the single tumor, and that would mean just surgeries and careful watching for a bit. However, this is not the story of my journey. I will need radiation, and we are waiting for the Oncotype test to come back to determine the need and type of chemotherapy. This will take 4 weeks, and we cannot start any treatment u...

How Do We Say Goodbye?

How do you say goodbye  to a spirit bigger than most,  and loved by all? By remembering what he did and who he was.  He wrestled.  He was a man who pinned opponents to the mat with power, strength, and fire,  yet always ended with a handshake, eyes steady, dignity intact. He rode.  A man who rode bulls for a living, chasing dust and danger,  his raw talent and fierce determination recognized long before the buckles came. He lived. He was a man who lived with integrity,  stood up for others with the heart of a hero and felt  the power of the Holy Spirit when he gave his life to Jesus.  He loved.  He was a man who loved his son and his family with a passion second only to the love of our Savior.  He was a friend who simply showed up every time he said he would and even when you didn’t ask him to. A man who gave his whole heart, his time, and his hugs to those lucky enough to love him. So how do we say goodbye? We wrestle.  W...

Well, Poo: Update on Cancer Treatment

The radiation oncologist entered our room in a medical halo, looking very uncomfortable and much like an image of Frankenstein. He was healing after suffering an injury to his neck in a swimming pool two weeks ago. "How are you doing?" he asked with genuine care and concern.  "Well, obviously, better than you at this point," I replied as I internally scolded myself for complaining about the rough nights sleeping in a recliner the past 6 weeks.  He smiled and said, "Yeah, maybe so." Then we got down to business. He reminded me that before surgery, we had discussed the possibility of doing radiation. He had laid out some clear signs that it would be necessary.  Buella (the cancer) had spread to the nodes (CHECK)  Tumor is greater than 2 cm (CHECK) There are cancer cells in the Lymphovascular system (CHECK) There are unclean or close margins from tumor edges to chest wall (<1 mm CHECK) You are premenopausal (CHECK) Each component increases the odds of lo...
