Praising God on the streets of NYC! Another “clean” scan!!! Thank YOU SO MUCH for praying and standing with us as we continue this journey...one day at a time, one prayer at a time. It all sounds cliche, but it’s true. All we have is this moment and what is right in front of us. It’s so easy to get caught up in the “what if’s” of tomorrow and totally ignore the gift of RIGHT NOW. I was worried about the outcome of the scans. What if...? And the Lord reminded me of the fact that no matter what the outcome, no matter what the scan results showed, God is still GOOD, REGARDLESS...because He is God! And His plans are perfect! He doesn’t make mistakes! This kind of trust doesn’t happen overnight! It’s a letting go and letting God one moment at a time. It’s learning to understand and accept how little I can control, but how perfectly in control God is. And although it’s dreadfully hard sometimes, I would not want it any other way. I’m praying for you! Proverbs 3:5-6

His wife, Jill, posted about it on Instagram, with a photo of Jim celebrating in the classic "point to God" touchdown pose.

She said her husband's cancer scans came back negative.

It's been just over a year since Kelly's last surgery to remove cancer from his jaw.
