to &#8220;no hay nada&#8221; or &#8220;there is nothing&#8221; from the doctor.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a lovely jump, I am grateful, I am beyond grateful.\u00a0 I&#8217;m also tired and weary.\u00a0 Sometimes the pain is a lot.\u00a0 It is all a lot to wrap my head around.\u00a0 That is just an honest response I suppose.\u00a0 But I truly don&#8217;t want all the feelings and emotions to overshadow what has actually happened this week.\u00a0 I went from having cancer to not having cancer.\u00a0 Yes, those are heavy words to write, but the burden of carrying that was heavy too.\u00a0 The greatest thing I believe that happened this week was that I did not carry this burden alone.\u00a0 A lot of times we do that, right?\u00a0 We want to be tough, to feel we need to <em>prove\u00a0<\/em>that we can do it on our own.\u00a0 We were never meant to carry burdens on our own.\u00a0 That was one of the biggest lessons I learned this week.\u00a0 Sharing the load, allowing others to carry and shoulder the burdens WITH me.\u00a0 There were literally people around the world praying for me this week.\u00a0 Those prayers were so felt while I was in the procedure room.\u00a0 The one thing I wanted to prepare (probably was because it was something I could actually control) was to have a playlist of worship music that I could listen to, which is funny because I had no idea how to actually make that happen and it took 3 people to help me-thank you, you know who you are!\u00a0 As soon as the music was in my ears and in my head there was peace, the unspeakable peace, the one that transcends or exceeds understanding, one translation says &#8220;His peace that keeps your thoughts and your hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ Jesus.&#8221; (The Living Bible)<\/p>\n<p>It only took about 15-20 minutes for the 1st part of the procedure.\u00a0 After that, Joel was able to be with me.\u00a0 We talked a bit and then listening to worship music until the doctor came in and said that the pathologist found some suspicious areas that need some more time (that had already been about 45 minutes) that we were waiting.\u00a0 The anesthesia was starting to wear off which was something I was really scared about.\u00a0 I knew it would be painful, but I was expecting the amount that was coming.\u00a0 She came back 15 minutes later and gave us a thumbs up that everything was fine, she later said, &#8220;no hay nada&#8221; meaning there was nothing.\u00a0 That whole 1st layer they took off showed NO CANCER CELLS at all!\u00a0 She then said it was time to work on the reconstruction of my face.\u00a0 This was something unexpected for me.\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t realize this is something that would happen the same day.\u00a0 The main thing was knowing more anesthesia would need to be injected in to the area that was already becoming super painful.\u00a0 At the moment where it was becoming super painful is when I was listening to the song <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0m6EFPXm57g\">In the Room\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>At the very time, God just gave me such amazing peace that He was in the room with me, like palpable, tangibly with me!\u00a0 Even in the midst of the pain and fear, He was there!\u00a0 I knew it was going to be OK, I knew I was going to be OK!<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what Jesus did, I don&#8217;t know how or why, but I know, the exact thing I prayed for and asked you all the pray for is exactly what happened!\u00a0 That is what I know!\u00a0 I don&#8217;t know how, I can&#8217;t wrap my brain around it all, the whys, the grace, the questions, but that is what I know.\u00a0 God was in the the room, God was and is\u00a0 me and He is good. And even if the outcome had been different, God STILL would have been there then and now and He would still be good.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what you are facing, but here are some of the the verses that I received during this time and things people were praying over me.\u00a0 I also have included the link to the amazing playlist that I listened to while in surgery.\u00a0 Maybe it will usher you in to the presence of Jesus as it did me.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amazon.com\/music\/player\/user-playlists\/f7bdd08435054c81bbaad68868199cb1sune?marketplaceId=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;musicTerritory=US&amp;ref=dm_sh_eK0dMadMdEvfEE2hHGdPmQrJ4\">Presence Playlist<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>John 14:27<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span class=\"woj\">\u201cI am leaving you with a gift\u2014peace of mind and heart!

However, we cling to the promises that God has given us and we know that if God has called us, He will also equip us.
