Happy Birthday Jesus!

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace.  Jesus, the Messiah is all of this and even more.  He is our God, the Savior.  This is the message I heard today at service. 
Today reminded me so much of what happened the very first time I was told that I was sick with cancer.  Today, I thought back to being told by Dr. Barber that I had a cancerous growth on my tonsil that he could feel. He wanted to scrape my tonsil and throat for tissue samples so he left to get his tools.  I was alone in the examination room and decided right then to pray to God, got down on my knees and spoke out saying “Mighty God, I thank you for all you do for me”.
Mighty God…Indeed God is mighty. Because of his might, I am able to write in this journal and update you with the latest.  Last week, Dr. Goodman recommended that I be cleared to return to work in a light duty capacity, better known as a desk job. I had to petition the department to try to get a desk job as my current position does not have a desk job. I have heard that the Chief of Police is trying to find something for me to do so I can get back to the job. My health continues to improve each day.  I have been in physical therapy the last two weeks, working M-W-F to get back my muscle tone and gain weight.  I am also getting therapy to help with the scar tissue build up forming in my throat and neck.  The scar tissue makes me stiff and sore in the jaw, throat, neck and shoulders.  I am learning how to do stretches, massage and exercises to help relieve the stiffness.

On the eve of His birthday, I give thanks for all things in my life.  I feel so blessed to have come this far in my life and look forward to what God has in store for me.  I have seen, felt, lived and now witnessed the awesome power of our Mighty God.  Thank you God for giving us your son, Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace.
