I was deeply troubled to hear of the news you received from your doctor. Please know that you are in the thoughts and prayers of so many. Even though there may be times when you feel alone, know that there are many who care about you and who are lifting you up before the throne of grace during this most difficult time.
I have known some people who think that if one is diagnosed with cancer, or some other illness, that they must have sinned or somehow fallen short before God. In case any of those thoughts are creeping in to your mind, I want to assure you that God does not work that way. The Bible clearly tells us that all of us are subject to times of joy and times of sorrow.
“What the Church needs today is not more machinery or better, not new organizations or more novel methods, but men whom the Holy Ghost can use–men of prayer, men mighty in prayer.” -E.M. Bounds

The moment you wake up each morning, all your wishes and hopes for the day rush at you like wild animals. And the first job each morning consists in shoving it all back; in listening to that other voice, taking that other point of view, letting that other, larger, stronger, quieter life come flowing in. -C.S. Lewis
