More than a friend….
August 23, 2007
In the quiet of my soul
In the stillness I hear Your voice call
And I am overwhelmed
And I am lost for words
To describe You
Chorus:
Jesus You’re more than a friend
Jesus You’re more than my heart could ever express
Your love and Your grace never fail me
Your merciful touch always heals me
You bring joy to my soul
My heart longs to worship You my King
And I long to bring You a pleasing offering
And I am overwhelmed
And I am lost for words
To describe You
Jesus You’re more than a friend
Jesus You’re more than my heart could ever express
Your love and Your grace never fail me
Your merciful touch always heals me
You bring joy to my soul

I would love to hear from you!
The day you (very bravely) posted the black and white photo you now have on your sidebar, my husband looked over my shoulder knowing nothing about you or your circumstance and said “Wow, she’s pretty!”
You are beautiful! I just caught up on your posts and I copied your prayer requests to help me know how to pray for you. You will get through this chemo - we’ll be here for you. And you know Jesus is with you, too. May the Lord be merciful to you and give you more good days than not-so-good chemo days. I last wrote of my sadness over my husband needing surgery sometime in the future. The Lord has lifted that sadness somewhat, thankfully. Keep my focus on Him. Right? I hope your children do well as they settle into their new school routine. They are so cute - what a blessing to have them.
In Christ,
Kate
Heather,
May the prayers today blanket you in comfort and warmth. Blessings my friend! Thank you for the words…

Dear Heather…What a spunky and courageous little one you are!!
Here you are making us laugh even though you are the one that is going through so much!
I am referriing not to this lovley song but to the downside of cancer list that you made…
I agree with A & E’s husband.
You ARE pretty Especially Heather and you are also beautiful both inside and out!
You are a delight and so well loved by the Pilgrim Pals!!
Love Terry
Oops!
I should have said the up side of cancer!.
.LovreTerry again!
That was a beautiful song and the words are oh, so, true!
Hey Heather,
As always you are so encouraging to me — and I know others! You are ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS sans hair :D I hope and pray you continue on the upside of cancer (loved your list too!).
Wonderful song! Thanks for sharing!

Thinking about you and praying. Hang in there, sweet Heather. You can do this.
praying for you hon…I hope you feel much better soon..
hugs and prayers,
I haven’t written in a while Heather, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t praying for you. My husband prays for you several times a day. We are covering you in prayer - always.
I’ve come to visit via Arlenes blog (www.lovinggodandlife.blogspot.com). You are so beautiful - not many could look that good without hair! I am praying for you and I have added you to my Wednesday blog which is strictly used that day to ask for healing in the name of Jesus. It has become “By His Stripes” day and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God is able.
Blesssings on you!!
I hope your body adjusts quickly to the new regimen and that your nausea subsides. Don’t push yourself too hard on the homeschooling. perhaps it’s time to incorporate a little “unschooling” into the curriculum.
I’m so sorry. Praying for you. Today maybe you can just teach them - without words or books - that you love them, that God is faithful, and that bad days are still worth the trouble. Good lessons.
Your children are blessed that you are their teacher. Trust me on that.
Heather honey - Hang in there, so many of us are praying for you. I went through high dose chemo in 1998. I had only a small chance of survival (stage 4 lymphoma), and would wonder “is this worth it?” Well yes it surely was! Since I went into remission…a nice long remission still going strong after 9 years…I have seen my children graduate, two of the three kids have married wonderful people and the third has a great boyfriend, my career exploded like I could never have expected, I have traveled and seen many great places, and most importantly…I have seen 4 healthy, JOYFUL grandchildren born! So YES, this will be worth it. Our God is faithful and you are strong! This will be a blip in your overall journey here on earth. You will be OK. You will thrive and hold your grandbabies!

Our situations are not in anyway simelar, but this exact song has taken me through this week.
