One door closed, still looking up

We found out a day or so ago that our insurance won't cover a trip to Santa Monica for the trial treatments. It's a relief, to a certain extent. It's also an answer to prayer, as we've been asking God what to do.

I've felt for the past couple of months that God will not share His praise with anyone or anything else. Not Isagenix, although it has helped to better Jeseca's life. Not chemotherapy or any radiation treatment. These only treat the symptoms. No, it will only be God who completely heals her, and He will deserve all of the credit.

So we are down to the decision of whether to seek Him in Mexico at the Oasis of Hope (an alternative treatment center with a concentration on Christian principles) or here at home. The Oasis of Hope offers 2-3 weeks of natural treatments, solitude, and a good soaking of the Bible and prayer. But it comes with a $18,000 price tag, all out-of-pocket. We don't have the money, so unless God sells a couple of cows, we'll be praying here in San Diego.

Time appears to be getting shorter, but we balance what she goes through with the promises of God, words He has actually spoken to us through the Bible, in our hearts, and through other people, and we wait for Him to come through. He will, we are sure of that. We just hope it will be soon. JG
