Bad Things happen to Good People or Things happen to God's People

Sunday morning Pastor Rick Bezet referred to the statement that some people get hung up on, "Why do bad things happen to Good People?" He took exception with the words, "good people," using the Bible verse Jesus said, "Why are you calling me good? No one is good—only God. Luke 18:19 (The Message). His point, as I understood it, no one is good, we are defective people saved by God's incredible grace.
As a Christ Followers are there really any bad things? In Romans 8:28 (The Message) says That's why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good. That's why I know that a stem cell transplant will turn out to be a good thing........

God willing, until tomorrow

I don't need any details

The phone call actually caught me off guard, I had gone to my Nurse Practitioner, the day before and been given medication for what I convinced myself was the problem. It was not to be. My friend called,"go to the hospital," she said "they are expecting you; you're not depressed; your hemoglobin is 5.8." So began a new journey....... So many words to learn, Myelodysplastic Syndrome, MDS for short, formerly known as preleukemia. For the last nine months its been all about counts, red, white,and platelets... but what an adventure I have been on, God is so good, He has been with me each step of the way.
Monday, January 11, 2010, I begin the life saving treatment of a stem cell transplant at MD Anderson, Houston, TX. This blog will be about my journey.....my husband sometimes say to me, "I don't need to know any details", so my hope is that I will not get mired down in the details, but leave you with the hope and peace I feel because God loves you and me; and He hears our prayers and I am living proof of those prayers.

God willing, until tomorrow.....
