Sept 08, 2012 – Day 100

Today is day 100 and my bone marrow is still 100% clean. PTL !!!
It is only appropriate to rejoice and praise through Psalm 100 on this blessed 100 day!!!

Psalm 100 – Giving Grateful Praise to our Lord.
1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the Lord is God.  It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.
4 Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name.
5 For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations.   Amen

Little angel Bronwyn Fogerty launched a star of thanksgiving for that day 🙂
http://constellation.standup2cancer.org/41072 – thank you Bronwyn!

It was cool that some started celebrating yesterday since it was already 100 days in their time zone.  That was too sweet !!!

I want to thank you all for your faithful prayers and support.  You have no idea what a blessing this journey has been (yes a true blessing).  It was all worth it.  I got to reunite with my beloved cousins (which was priceless), find old friends, meet new ones, discover the deep deep deep love of our Lord and understand what it really means to go through a furnace that was made 7 times hotter and come out not even smelling like fire.

You gotta love Him !!! PTL

In His Mighty Grip

Sami

Please take care of yourself; you’re so precious.

    Is it joy, much more, is it victory assurance, much more. Should we be surprised.. God is able? Should we say ,, I told you so? Should we shout ? Or just hum a soft him? So much mixed feelings, as our God proves again and again that he is in control of all things, over all the earth.. The simple single blood cell and the mighty storm… He is Lord …
    Cant express … Halleluiah ..

    Sami,

    I’m with you praising the Lord for His goodness to all of us for the blessing of having you as a friend and example. Praise God for what He’s doing and what He’s done and for the gracious gift of true-blue friends who are closer even than a blood-brother.

    What are your next 100 days going to look like?

    I love you brother,

    Jeff

    أجل يا سامي، إنها رحلة ألم طويلة، كنت كلما اقترب اليأس مني أسمع صوت الرب يقول: انتظري لا تستعجلي الأمور، قوي إيمانك” حينها تجلى ألم يسوع على الصليب أمامي، لأحيا فرح الإنتصار على الموت.
    أيقنت بالإيمان بالرب أن الرب يسوع يسمعني، واليوم العظيم آت. فإن بكيت الآن أبكي فرحا بالعيد.قلبي يهلل وروحي ترقص، أجل يا أخي العزيز سامي.
    كنت صامتة طوال هذه الرحلة، والآن حان الوقت لكي أبوح بمكنونات قلبي وأبارك لكم جميعا هذا الشفاء الإلهي.
    أقول لكم فردا فردا كي لا أنسى أحدا:
    أحبكم من أعماق قلبي والله أعلم.

    هللويا. يسوع المسيح هو هو امساً واليوم والى الابد
    إن كان الرب هو الله فاعبدوه
    حسن هو الحمد للرب والترنم لاسمك أيها العليّ
    الرب هو الله هو صنعنا ونحن شعبه وغنم مرعاه

    انتظاراً انتظرت الرب فمال اليّ وسمع صراخي ……..وأقام على صخرة رجلي ثبت خطواتي وجعل في فمي ترنيمة جديدة تسبيحة لالهنا. احمدوا الرب لانه صالح.
    Praise be to the Lord
