WHAT?? Who says that??? Well not many, but today...I DO! Well,Jesus says I'm supposed to. "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." I'm at peace though many say that I shouldn't be. Before I had the chemo and after, I was at peace with what God had decided for my day. I smiled and joked throughout the therapy to show everybody around me that with God they can bring it on with a smile! My relationship with the Lord has grown exponentially since my hospital stay. It's amazing. As someone who struggles with Anxiety and Panic Disorder, I have never felt so much peace about anything in my life. Especially when the doctors are all telling me I will have to live the rest of my life with this disease, whatever is. They're not sure yet, but they will be more sure after a MRI scan. But they know for sure I have a demyelinating disease. My life is changed forever. But I am at peace. So world, met me the new Alex Skaberg.

Wow Alex, very encouraging! This is so great, I'm so glad the Lord is working in you this way. He does have great plans for you and I can already see why God may have you going through this is because of how you can bring glory to God the way you are already doing! Love you
