Well i had on sceduled to have my surgery on the 7th of this month. However i ended up getting sick. I was in bed for almost four days. Fever, could not stay awake, cough, just sick.. to say the least.. So they had to rescedule my surgery. It is now the 28th of the month.. I was upset due to this as most can understand.. My doctor said that we have to have this done before things get worse and the cancer is worse..
Things have not been good.. I used up what money we had to buy meds, thanks to friends we have food, bless there hearts we have been getting care packages in the mail with food in them.. You never know how much a package with beans and powder milk mean until you are down and out... My jobs had been cancelled due to well the surgery. Now no one wants there house cleaned. So there is NO money to be made... And the time for the surgery will be here before i know it.. Once i have the surgery i am looking at 6 to 8 weeks of recovery time again no work.. So i am honeslty looking at a total of two and half months of no work and no money coming in...
God I know has a reason for all of this. I dont know what it is but i know he has a reason..
We are working on school lessons i had not planned on doing any while i was first out of the hospital but since that got changed i figure might as well go ahead and work on them.. The kids said that they would rather go ahead and keep up with there school work even when i have my surgery.. they said that it keeps some normal in there lives.. i can understand that...
You know i have had some real strange things happen in my life lately.. People seem to think just because i was in a marriage and relationship with my x husband for 20plus years that i want to run out and jump into another relationship. like the one i was in all those years dont mean anything.. How can i do that. i dont understand that. i honestly had someone tell me that i should start dating and as soon as possible.. I dont get it. i am sorry. i dont.. why is it that in this world people think you have to go from one relationship to another. why cant people allow themselves time to heal time to get to know what God wants for them.. I think that God has much better plans for me and a much better husband for me if i wait for him.. I know he has got to do a better job than i did..
Please keep my family in your prayers... We are trying the best we can with all the issues of our lives.. pray that we are able to get all the cancer cells when we go in surgery... and pray that this will be one of the last surgeries i have to go under. I am so tired of all of this honeslty.
god bless glenda

Dear ''precious'' Glenda,
I am praying for you! I wish I lived much closer. I know times are real hard right now but things will get better, the Lord does not leave us in the valley, He brings us through... Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. Ps 23:1 <A Psalm of David.> The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. Ps 23:2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. Ps 23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Ps 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Ps 23:5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Ps 23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. Why do people act the way they do, trying to convince you to date and get on with your life? Because they are carnally minded. They get their teachings and philosophy's from this world. TV (movies), radio, magazines, co workers, family members, carnal pastors, carnal church members, anyone who does not walk with God or obey His word. I know lots of pastors, church leaders, and church members, read their bibles through in a year, some witness, do good deeds, talk a good talk, people call them godly, but these people pick and choose what they think is worthy of obeying in Gods word.
Wives work outside the home Tit 2:4,5
Women cut, style, and even bob their hair 1Cor 11:15 1Pe 3:3 1Tim 2:9
Women paint (cover up) their faces, changing the way God made them never truly happy with Gods order. 1Tim 2:9
They wear britches Deut 22:5
They dress immodestly 1Ti 2:9
They take roles in the church and speak boldly 1Co14:34 1Co14:35
They are not loving and submissive to their husbands Eph5:24 Col 3:18 Eph 5:33
They do not love their enemies or those that do them wrong Mat 5:44
They watch TV/movies, read magazines and books that are not wholesome, listen to fleshly ''christian'' music, they cater to their carnal flesh in many many ways. 1Th 5:22 Jas 4:4
Men do the same and they do not stand up for truth and righteousness, they let the women around them break Gods ways. The men do not want to be accountable for the carnality in their own lives. If they point out someone else's sin then someone will point out theirs. That's why liberals/carnal christians favorite verse to quote is ''Judge not lest ye be judged.'' (Southern version) (Mat 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.) Matthew 7 is full of good teaching, people should read and quote the whole thing. 1Co 6:2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Joh 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. We as christians should be very careful the things we do and the decisions we make.Jas 4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. The philosophy of this world is not of God. God does not wink at it. When we stand before the Lord we will be judged by His word (the Word of God).Joh 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. A carnal christian would say ''I don't reject Jesus, I receive His words!'' but if they do not obey Him, they are rejecting and they don't receive.2Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Heb 5:9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. Act 5:29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. Rom 6:12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Rom 6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? I am praying for Gerald. God is able to do the impossible. I'm still hoping he'll come to his right mind and come back to you and his children and get right with God. He's not a bad man, just carnal and weak and has not ever learned how to walk with God.
You and Gerald have been through alot together, raised 5 children (which you are still raising). 20 years is a long time. The world can easily through all that away. He should not have left you and your precious children. He has his own problems he does not know how to rectify. God can help him. We will continue to pray for him. We love Gerald. We love you and your precious children. God loves all of you more than we do.
I'm sure most christians at church mean well, but their philosophy does not line up with the heartbeat of God. I will pray about all that too.
I know you must be in alot of pain...physical and emotional...I am sorry...I hurt with you. I cannot understand all your going through because I've not been where your at, but I hurt with you. I will be in much continued prayer for you dear friend. Call if you need me.
Love your sister and friend, ~ Darlene ~

Sister Glenda,
Still lifting you up in prayer. I hope all is well and things are looking up a bit. Praying all your needs will be met.
Let us know how your doing.
It's snowing here right now, I'm wondering if it's snowing there. If so I know the children are enjoying it, ours sure are. I hope your keeping warm.
Love, Darlene ~

Hello all. this is glenda. I am up for a few minutes. I am still in a lot of pain. I had to have a historecry. They removed my uterus, cervix and a whole lot of scare tissue. I also had my bladder tacked and slung... I am very weak and worn down. My blood level dropped again. it is at a 8 so that is hurting healing time. I am very pale and just hurting. I can not drive for three weeks. no doing anything for six weeks. they send everything off as things did not look good.. please keep us in your prayers.. We have had many stuggles in the time period.. God is good. I am at home with my children where i belong. We think we got all the bad cells out.. thank the lord.. pray that there is no other cancer.... god bless glenda
