Anywhere With Jesus I Will Safely Go
Jack has had a good day at chemotherapy. Took 4 hours to the minute today from start to finish. No problems at all, we just went right in with no extra complications today. I was very curious as to what Jack's ANC counts would be today, after his one session on chemo last week. I am excited to say that his counts are better than they were before his fist chemo treatment last week! Jack watched his favorite movie Scooby Doo 2 and played his gameboy, and before we knew it he was done.
This was also the 2nd day of school, and all the kids are having fun, and learning too! Jack was disappointed to leave school early today to go to chemotherapy, but that is where our two worlds are interwoven right now. Healthcare and our daily lives. Jack loves his teachers and is always happy when he has friends around. I am so glad to have him in such a great atmosphere at school, all the teachers are so kind and helpful. Jack's smile makes everybody love him.
I bought the new Amy Grant Cd which she sings some old favorite hymn's and the first song is Anywhere With Jesus I Will Safely Go, I love that song and it is so comforting to sing those words right into my heart. I am grateful to be able to lay my burden's down and have our Sweet Heavenly Father lift them for me. I feel like this year I must just lay at His feet and He will carry all of us through, but I am so glad for the grace he shows me when I am struggling in my faith. I love the song which I haven't got the first clue of the name but it says, when I am strong enough I will stand on His promises, and when I'm not I will fall on the grace that called me to Him in the first place. My days are filled with both of the previous descriptions, strength when I rely on Him, and falling when I only rely on myself. I know that Light of His Glory is shown through the cracked clay pot I am. Thanks for your prayers we feel them every day.
Love, Tammy

And if I can't, let me fall on the grace that first brought me to you So if I sing let me sing for the joy that has born in me these songs
And if I weep let it be as a man who is longing for his home
We truly are soul sisters. Those lyrics (I know the song that Rich Mullins sings but Jars of Clay has a recording) have helped me crawl on my hands and knees through very dark times. I'm thankful that today went well -- AND that Jack missed being at school! :-)
Much love to you all!

I love you so,

Much love to y'all!
