"Behold, I am doing a new thing ..."

A new day; the sun still rose, the boys have to get to school, the dishes need to be washed, and another day to praise God for His goodness, His character, His heart and His provisions for all of our needs.

George Perles, a former Michigan State football coach use to tell his players after a big win that they had one day to celebrate and after a big loss they had one day to feel bad about the loss. While we're not exactly dealing with a game here, the principal is the same -- today is a new day for us to graciously deal with the situation before us. Our prayer is that over the next couple of days, we'll get the information we need to make well informed and wise decisions. We keep reminding ourselves that, even with this unexpected finding during surgery, we're not dealing with a life-threatening cancer, and we'd like to keep it that way.

We have an appointment with the radiological oncologist this morning at 10. Please pray that we'll be level headed, that we'll communicate effectively and that God will be glorified through this interaction.
