Sunday, July 26, Marcus Milless, my newest son in laws brother began his chemotherapy treatment to rid his young body of Lymphatic cancer. Marcus will have to take chemotherapy for 8 months. Marcus is a senior at St. Thomas University and has been studying to be a priest for the past 3 years. Only God understands why Marcus has developed this disease.
Not all things make sense to us as humans, but Marcus is still in God's Hands and loving care. And, Marcus has all of our love and care for him too as he makes this journey at this time of his life. Marcus we are praying and pulling for you. Sharon and Joe Stiles
Today, Monday, July 27, my dear older sister Linda, started her chemotherapy treatment. I have cried for days now knowing since June 19 that Linda was diagnosed with Melanoma cancer.
But, I know that God is with her and that in some mysterious way that God is holding her hand and carrying her through this time - her own personal "agony in the garden." Linda, I love you and I am also praying for you daily just like I am for Marcus.
Watching you and Marcus and other dear close friends of mine go through the journey of having to take chemotherapy has caused me to take a closer look at my "walk with Christ" and so that is why I have named this blog, "sharon- walking with Christ."
I look to you both as people of deep faith and I see how you two are walking so closely with Christ already. This is my hope for all of us - that we will all look to Christ and lean on Him alone as we journey together this next year, praying for your courage and strength to face this ordeal and be healed in the process.
Know that you both are being lifted up to Mary, Jesus' mother, the great intercessor, and to the dear Holy Spirit who provides wisdom in times when there seems to be nothing but confusion.
May you be blessed and know how dear you are to Jesus, Mary and the Holy Spirit of God Almighty.
You are loved. Let's walk together now with Christ
