where is our focus?.......

Hi Family and Friends!! I have been so touched by all the emails and comments from the blog, thank you!!! I wanted to share something with you...... a friend sent me an incredible email yesterday, it was an interview with Rick Warren. He is the author of a book called Purpose Driven Life, many of you have read it. He has been very blessed with sells, about 15 million, and touched many lives. On the other side of his life, his wife has been struck with cancer. He shared that this life here on earth is preperation for eternity and we will have good and bad in our life at all times. This is boot camp on earth. Where is our focus? What we do with the good and bad is what counts. When we focus on the bad we feel crummy and nothing good comes out of it. When we focus on the good, it sure makes our life more enjoyable and pleasing to God. And......when we come to the end of our rope....and there will be days, we should find the hem of Jesus' garment and hang on. ( I've been there many times lately!! ) If you come across this interview save it...it's great! Curt is feeling so good right now that it's hard to believe he has cancer. He is so Amazing....he is focusing on all the good that has come out of this journey and it takes the strain off the decisions that have to be made in the next few days. God is narrowing down his options and when we wait on Him and His timing, we have peace. Together we have been focusing on our 27 years together and all the memories we've had along the way...and WOW ...we are blessed!! We are focusing on laughing more and being childlike and forgetting all our problems....just like Rick shared....focus on the good in life!! We both can't believe this terrible desease is in our life.......but the good is, we have You in our life to share this journey with. We are Blessed to have so many caring and loving friends and family. Thankyou!! We will let you know how our appointment on Friday goes. Love and enjoy Life, Shari
