A long time good friend and former intern (many years ago) of mine found out some rather bad news a couple of days ago. His wife has colon cancer! They have 3 young children and they both have faithfully served in ministry in the local church and parachurch areas.
Cancer sucks!
I have grown weary of the price that cancer forces individuals to pay. I continue to hear of friends or family members of friends who enter the fight to beat cancer. It is a burden. When I hear about it, I am forced to consider what I know to be true.
- God is in control.
- God is good.
- God has a plan.
- He can use anything in our lives for His redemptive plan and to bring Him glory.
I could go on.
I am forced in times like these to repeat a quote I first heard from one of my pastors. “When you can’t trace His hand, you simply have to trust His heart.”
