A friend of mine has voiced her state of mind in the journey she has been on with cancer. Following are words for encouragement for all of those going through a tough journey.

I have undergone 7 treatments now; with the 8th & Final scheduled for
Friday, August 3rd @ 10:00am. Did I hear someone yell, PARTY?

I have perservered this far because of each of you encouraging me. Did
you
know that the Apostle Paul had a traveling companion on many of his
missionary journeys, named Barnabas? Barnabas means, ENCOURAGER. Our
God
is so awesome in that He knew there would be times on our journey
through
life that we would need encouragment to get through the daily
distresses
that sometimes afront us. So, God sends an Encourager to give you that

extra PUSH to summit the mountain. There are countless opportunities
for
each of us to encourage others - take a look...

Thank you for being my Barnabas!

"The God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles so that we
can
comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we have received from
God." 2
Corinthians 1:4
