"What a Beautiful Day to Lose My Hair!"

It's a beautiful Sunday morning and I roll out of bed early to say goodbye to my granddaughter Savannah, who is headed back to college. Farewells are made with plenty of tears and "I Love You's." Afterwards, I step into the shower to prepare for church services. As I'm drying my hair, I feel like a thin veil is brushing against my upper body. I look into the sink and there are more hairs than I can count. Apparently, this is the long awaited day I have dreaded ever since the word "chemo" was mouthed by my doctor. I am alright with this. I know that hair or no hair, tooth or no tooth, breast or no breast is not who I am. So many times through the years, I have heard the scripture referred to that God looks inward while man looks outward. 1 Samuel 16:7 "....for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." I praise God for all His blessings...and if it has to be...what a beautiful day to lose my hair!
