ME was raised in the Baptist church and have always believed in God, which was why I could not why I curse with cancer. I attended church on a regular basis, tried to be a good Christian; I did everything by the book.
God, why have you forsaken me?
I turned to the book of Job. Job lost everything he had: family, land and wealth, yet he never lost faith in God. After reading the book of Job, I realized that I did nothing wrong. I had not done a thing to deserve this.
The faith the size of a mustard seed
I then remembered a conversation I had had with God several years ago. I would always hear people in church say God told them to do this and that. God never told me so. I have often wondered if these people were really the gift of discernment. I also wanted to believe in God the way they did.
Many people believe in God, but not me not believe God, and they are two different things. The Bible is full of miracles and God's promises. The Bible tells us of the blind men who received sight, feeding thousands with a few fish; The list is lengthened increasingly. If God has done all these things, then surely I too could be cured.
The Bible also said that all it took was the faith of a mustard seed. If you have seen a mustard seed, then you know that you do not have much faith at all. I wanted to have a closer relationship with God. I asked God for a closer connection. I wanted him to "talk" to me as he talked to others.
In order to be close to God, you must have an unshakable faith. While reading the book of Job, I realized that I was chosen, not cursed. God allowed me to be struck with peritoneal mesothelioma. I gained an unshakable faith that
Mesothelioma :. My Very Own Boot Camp
There is a hymn that says, "I'm on the battlefield for my Lord, I promised him that I would serve him until I die ..."
We will think about that, are you? If you put together an army to fight the enemy, you select your low or your strongest soldiers? to develop strong soldiers, they must be trained, namely, the training camp (mesothelioma).
captain (God) must know without a shadow of a doubt that when the going gets tough, you will not be lifted. Amid my chemotherapy treatments, surgeries and bad report after bad report, I maintained the faith of a mustard seed.
I immersed myself in his promises and miracles he has done. God is the same today, yesterday and forever. It was important for me to surround myself with believers, as well. I did not know how I will be healed, but I knew, I thought it would happen.
scripture and miracles
After two procedures and CHIP several different chemotherapy regimens, it was time to do or die. I went to the Prayer Tower in Tulsa, on the campus of Oral Roberts University. Having read several scriptures, I went to the building, and then I read one on the wall that stuck. Jeremiah 33: 3: "Call to me and I will answer. And I will show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not. "
that scripture resonated with me because at that time I had God to show me something that I knew nothing. I needed a miracle. I remembered that Jesus died on the cross for me thousands of years. He paid the ultimate price and suffered for that I should not.
therefore, I thought he was already suffering from cancer so that I should not. I say that Scripture again and again. the more I have said, the more I began to believe not only that, but I felt relieved.
the next day my oncologist told me that I am in remission for the first time. Like Job, I am now a miracle. Although I'm in remission, I still believe that I am healed and will continue to live a healthy life and productive.
