“Everything happens for a reason,”
the woman said with a bright smile as she sat down next to me.
I was just leaving my cardiologist and decided to stop and take a picture of the beautiful Chicago skyline outside.
As I was sitting next to her editing my picture she said,
“In my 62 years on this Earth, one thing I know…
Everything happens for a reason.”
I nodded my head, smiled and said,
“I believe everything happens for a reason too. “
If my journey with cancer has taught me anything is that there are no coincidences.
God works in mysterious ways.
Yet God always provides Good, Orderly, Direction.
Whether we realize it or not—we are never alone.
At times when we struggle to feel God’s presence in our life, faith steps us to gives eyes to see this good, orderly, direction.
Divine miracles are happening all around us every day, but it is up to us to notice the signs.
God is always whispering to us, encouraging us and helping to provide for us through the actions of others.
Yesterday I received the news I had been hoping and praying for months to receive.
I’ve been on edge because I have a big scan coming up that could solidify my odds of long-term remission.
But, over the past months, I’ve been having chest pains, low heart rate and dizziness that my doctors have been at a loss to explain.
With my upcoming scan and history of cancer, it is easy to fear the worst.
After I was done praying and meditating yesterday in preparation for my visit, I decided to pull a card out of my Souls Journey deck to help set my intention for the day.
As I began to shuffle the cards, to my surprise the Peace card flew out.
I knew this was a powerful confirmation that I was to focus on PEACE and let go of my fear and any negative thoughts about my health and upcoming scan.
On my way home from my appointment, while I was silently rejoicing over the great news I had just received from my doctor about my heart, I happened to glance up and see the car in front of me had simply the word PEACE on their license plate.
This powerful synchronicity confirmed that good things are coming.
The seeds of hope are watered by our faith.
We must trust and believe that all will work out in our best interest.
God will provide.
