Heather, thank you…this post ministered to me, as well. As one battling stage IV cancer myself, I see everyday the myriad ways in which my Savior rescues me, holds me up, gets me through the circumstances. He never said it would be easy, but He did promise to walk through the valley with us. And that is enough, as long as I remember to rest in Him.

Love and prayers for you & your family,

Heather, I fought that answer for the longest time. When we got the heartbreaking diagnosis (one after another after another), I just wanted the Lord to make it all go away. It took a long time to come to the point of surrender – of saying,”Yes, I trust You because I believe You are all You have said You are.” I have come to believe it is the life lesson He is trying to teach me – that once learned everything else falls into place.
You have encouraged me so much.

Such a beautiful post, Heather. I find nowhere in the Bible where God tells us to wear a mask or pretend.

God has lovingly held me through profound hurt, disappointment, fury and despair. In the end, I’ve discovered that even though my life doesn’t always make sense and things don’t turn out the way I desire, He sustains me, and He is always with me. For that, I am grateful.

I cling to Jeremiah 30:17, “I will give you back your health and heal your wounds.”

Amen.
