I know one of the hardest things during my moms Cancer Journey was losing her hair. Many of the women I speak with share the same sentiment. After all, the hair on top of our head has been ours and a part of us since birth. It becomes part of our identity. Then, when we are forced to lose it during treatment – well, the devil begins to sew his seeds of discourse. He will tell you your not beautiful, your not wanted. He plants seeds of Fear in our heart. He will fill our hearts with sorrow and empty our hearts of joy. John 8:44 I prayed to the Lord because I wanted my focus to be the Joy he has given me and His Love. I want my Beauty not to be the hair on my head but the Beauty of Gods Love and Strength in my heart. I am not going to allow the Devil to take my Joy. So today, I am shaving my head before Chemo takes it from me. I will not believe the Devils lies! Chemo starts Thursday – when you see me – know that I have a Mighty God that is carrying me and he is casting out all my Fears because my Faith in God is Greater than fear!
Psalm 34:4ESV
I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.
For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. – Psalm 139:14
