...AND SOMETIMES

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and my mind immediately starts thinking about the cancer. I guess I mainly think about dying. I try to shut off that kind of thinking. Sometimes I’m able to, sometimes I’m not.

Last night was one of those nights. I couldn’t turn it off. The more I laid awake, the worse it got. Instead of trying to will myself back to sleep, I started to pray. And eventually, my fears were calmed and I fell back asleep.

Another one of God’s lessons.

“But as for me, it is good to be near God.
I have made the Sovereign LORD my refuge;”
Psalm 73:28
