ACCEPT THING AS IT IS

Greetings from Malaysia

It is God's plan that I have cancer at this stage of my life. I cannot do anything but to accept it positively and to overcome it with God's help and mercy.

First I have to make drastic changes from the unhealthy lifestyle I have been practicing for the past few decades to a more healthy one. I have to make the best of it as it is no point being bitter about it.

As it is common for cancer patients to have a huge weight loss, I have to take steps either to regain what is lost or to maintain my present weight. I believe the latter is better as I can look slim and fit in my new attires. It also makes me aware that I need to change my diet for a more nutritious and balanced one. I believe God's timing is perfect as I am still young and strong to battle cancer. Should it happen in the latter part of my life, I may not be physically or mentally strong to cope with it.

Having cancer has opened my mind to new challenges. For example, I can now inject myself with my prescribed medications. Formerly the sight of needles be it thin or thick will give me the shivers but now I have overcome this fear. I had to turn my eyes away from the person who was administering the injection. I am glad that God is beside me all the time to urge me to move on.

At this stage of my life, I have to learn to take things in my stride and to be more conscious of my health. As such, i need to take up less stressful tasks but not giving up performance at the same time. In order that I am not too weary, I need to take more rest and nap when necessary. A tired body will be too weak to battle effectively. I am sure God is always by my side to urge and give me strength.

I have also realize that to have a healthy and strong body, exercise is very vital. To accomplish this I have registered for qigong lessons as well as to take morning walks alternatively. A strong body will breed good immunity and a healthy soul and mind. God will only help those who help themselves.

Proactive measures have to be taken to ensure I have a healthy and longer life.

Living longer is important to me at this stage. I have a lot of incomplete missions. One of them is to build a more harmonious n happy family for I have busy chasing my career and have neglected my family. I also need to see that my children have enough funds to finish their degrees and graduate.

Thank you God for making me aware of my incomplete missions and give me a second chance to live and to accomplish all these missions. A happy and harmonious home will make life shine.

As I encounter these challenges in my life it has helped to strengthen my faith in God. No doubt I am suffering but it has led me to see life in a different light. I know that it is God's challenge to me and I know that He is capable of leading me out of this adversity. God is great!!!

With God as my guide and counselor, no challenge is difficult to conquer. I will win the battle.

Thank everyone for your good wishes and prayers.
No challenge is difficult for me to conquer. Left out for me.
