Your Question:
What now? I just found out I have cancer.
Answer:
My friend, I can only imagine the shock and fear you must be feeling right now. I've been in your shoes before, 19 years ago when I thought I had cancer. But praise God, it wasn't cancer at all. My wife Susan's prayers and my own faith sustained me until we found out the truth. Even though we pray and have faith, the outcome and timing are God's decisions. There's a time to heal, as it says in Ecclesiastes 3:3. Don't beat yourself up if healing doesn't happen right away. God sometimes uses physical ailments to get our attention, so He can speak to us. Keep praying, but know that God's decision is the bottom line. Remember, my friend, that even in the midst of uncertainty, God is always with you. I'll be praying for you and your family, and I encourage you to hold onto faith and hope. As it says in Matthew 9:22, "Jesus said to her, 'Your faith has healed you. Go in peace, and be freed from your suffering.'" May God grant you peace and comfort in this difficult time.
