The night before I was to go in for my first chemotherapy treatment after being diagnosed with breast cancer, I was extremely anxious. I had never been in such a state and couldn’t settle down enough to sleep. I began praying and received a wonderful flood of peace. But then as I looked up the veil was withdrawn and I saw around my bed my deceased relatives. They were smiling and happy. Literally they were celebrating. They were excited that I was going to be starting this trial. “Good for her!” “This is going to be so good for her!” I was more than shocked as I sat back in the midst of this party scene. In that moment as I glimpsed into another dimension, my perspective changed. “Well, then, I thought, there’s nothing to worry about, this will be good for me.”
Following need verification:
And the words from a favorite hymn flooded into mind, “How great thou art.” How great thou art and thy will and plans so far beyond my understanding. Me a mere mortal kicking against the pricks and yet you and your angels celebrate. May I align my will more fully with thine.
