Pink Story: More than Survive

Repeatedly, I see the stickers that say "survive" or "cancer survivor."  I've decided I don't like the word "survive" when it comes to my cancer.  You might say your survived a shark attack, but survive sounds so limiting to me.  It creates a picture of just making it through, almost going down, but finally pulling through.

I will not survive this cancer attack, I will be victorious.  I will win this battle because I do not fight this alone.  In fact, most days I feel like I don't fight it at all.  I am being carried through the battle.  I see it, I feel it, but I rest in my savior's arms who has already fought and won and who continues to take out each of my adversaries each day as they come at me.

I am victorious because of what He has already done for me.  I am not a survivor who is barely living. I am victorious and fully alive and will come on the other side of this stronger than before.
