Words to Live By
God is the one
who began
this good work in you,
and I am certain
that he won't stop
before it is complete
on the day
that Christ Jesus returns.
-- Philippians 1:6, CEV

Many years ago, I chose this as my life verse. Every time I read these words, I am awed that God chose me "before the foundation of the world" (Ephesians 1:4), that He is continually working in me, and that He won't stop until Jesus Christ returns in all His Glory.
What a precious promise!

I "accidentally" found your blog just now - and want to tell you I will pray for you and your family. Our family was also touched by multiple myeloma, and I also wanted to tell you of a friend who had very good success with being treated with his MM with thalidomide - it has kept it in remission for many years. I also noticed you and I had a similar post on our goal in life - to honor God - so may God bless you for your honoring him!
And may you continue to take hold of God and pull (this is the name of a devotional I read in college) and also have you read the Phil Yancey book - I think it was the "Disappointment with God" book, or else "where is God when it hurts", maybe they will also bring comfort to you.
Blessings - Diane from Michigan
