Post #22 Trust the Plan
I'm not really sure what to even title this post. I need a complete reset today. My emotions have been all across the board to grateful, scared, sad, blessed...
Before February 11, 2025 -if I had an ache, a headache, a random pain, I wouldn’t think twice. I’d take a couple of Motrin and move on with my day.
Now, after my cancer diagnosis, everything feels different.
If I notice a bruise or even the slightest pain, my mind can instantly go to the “C” word. The fear creeps in quickly. It feels heavy. It feels scary. And if I’m honest, it happens more often than I’d like to admit.
Learning how to manage those thoughts is something I’m still working on.
In moments like today, when the worry tries to take over, I have to lean into what I know deep in my heart. I believe in God. I believe He has a constant and intentional plan for our lives. I believe we are each here for a purpose.
Today, I’m wearing one of my Grateful Heart hoodies, and it feels like more than clothing ... it feels like comfort. Like a shield and a reminder. A reminder that even in moments when fear tries to rise, gratitude can rise higher. The words across my chest aren’t just a design, they’re a declaration. God is with me. He always has been. And sometimes He sends the smallest reminders - something we wear, a whisper to our spirit, a quiet nudge - to reassure us that we are never walking this road alone.
I don’t fully know what my purpose is in this chapter. Maybe it’s to strengthen my faith. Maybe it’s to encourage someone else. Maybe it’s to help another woman feel less alone in her fear. I may not understand the full picture, but I trust that God does.
God has a plan for me.
God has a plan for you.
God has a plan for each of us.
So today, I’m taking my own advice. I’m choosing trust over fear. I’m choosing faith over anxiety. I’m choosing to rest in His plan.
Dear God,
Thank you for today. Thank you for the breath in my lungs and the gift of another day. Thank you for Your divine plan, even when I don’t fully understand it. Please guide me back to You when worry creeps in. Wrap me in Your comfort and remind me that You are in control.
Thank You for Your constant love.
In the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, Amen. 💗
Live It. Wear It.
