Think Pink

Today was the Race For the Cure in Little Rock. I have walked, let me stress walked in this race for a few years now, but never like today. I walked by myself, had tons of friends there, but among the other fifty thousand women I couldn't find them. This was the first time I have walked in the race while personally knowing someone who is fighting this battle of breast cancer. It was overwhelming to see so many people in one place together for one cause, such a feeling of unity, but I just wondered about how my friends felt. They are not like me just walking for a cause I feel strongly about, they are walking for their lives, fighting something, that seems so much bigger than we are. We seem small, weak, I mean pink not a very threating color. Cancer is big, mean, stronger than we are, right? Then I thought about God, our great, big Father up in Heaven watching down on us, He is bigger, stronger than cancer! I pray for my courageous friends one who is in remission , one about to start chemo, remember our God, your God is bigger than this disease. I am so proud of you and love you so much.
