Mammogram Day

Yes it was that time again and those closest to me know I am scared when I go. Up until today I have always had someone go with me "just in case".  This time I decided I was a big girl and I could handle it. However, on the way there my mind wandered to the place it always goes.... what if it shows something, can you handle it, etc. That is when I heard a soft voice ask "Why are you looking for problems? Wait until it actually happens and then we deal with it." It was then I realized I was not alone and God had not only calmed my nerves but had gently scolded me about worrying when I didn't need to. I guess there will always be that small fear in the back of my mind but I know I am not alone and that is where I need to focus so the fear stays at bay. I am not perfect, I am still a work in progress but I am thankful for gentle reminders when I need them. The mammogram by the way.... all clear for 6 more months. Praise the Lord!
