WALKING BY FAITH by Leann Harris
We’ve all heard the verse about walking through the valley of the shadow of death in the 23rd Psalm. Well, I’ve lived it. I’m a cancer survivor, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma which caused a brain tumor, which meant I had to have part of my skull rebuilt. I was racing along in life, my writing career flourishing, then wham, everything came to a screeching halt. 

Everything changed in an instant. TWEETABLE

I will fear no evil, for you are with me … Psalm 23:4b 

When God holds you in the palm on His hand, you’re sheltered. That’s where I was in the midst of that cancer storm. I had peace and a knowledge I wasn’t alone.

The chemo turned my brain to mush and the radiation on my skull changed how I write, but with each step, God’s peace never left. I was in his hands. I finished two books during that time. I have a book for LI coming out in July ’16, The Cowboy Meets His Match, and the final book in a trilogy of Indie books, Stolen Secrets should be out before Easter.

The final verse of the 23rd Psalm--Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.(NIV)  What a wonderful promise. I’d encourage you no matter where you find yourself and no matter what situation you face, God is there, just seek him.

For me, I’m looking forward to this next spring. I’m a gardener and I haven’t been able to bend over and work in my garden for two years, but this spring I plan to rejoice in the midst of my flowers. 

There among the blooms, I’ll get to thank the Lord for his goodness.
