A God thing. Way better than a good thing.

I've done a lot of crying lately, due mainly to blessings in my life. I've watched a lot of wow-god moments happen to other people, like you could literally see the hand of God move in their life. It gave me faith, I've been searching for an answer to something for some time now, and seeing these moments happen to others has given me even more faith that God has an answer for me too in his own good time.



I have a friend who was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago. It was a really bad prognosis too. She asked the doctors, "what if I don't respond to treatment? How long do I have?" they told her two weeks. Two weeks. She had smoked all her life and so surprise! She had lung cancer. She had lung cancer but she didn't have God. She went to church but she didn't have God. I don't know how you battle something like that without him. We all prayed for her cancer, and even more earnestly prayed for her soul. Just this weekend she finally gave her life to the Lord...which was amazing! We were all ecstatic! She was overjoyed, we were overjoyed, but she still had cancer. The very next Thursday, this Thursday, she went to the doctor for her check-up....


shes cancer free.


a-ma-zing.


I hear about stories like this from other people...but I've never known anyone directly that it's happened too. This is NO coincidence. Perhaps the Lord used her cancer to bring her to him...I hope it doesn't take such extremes for everyone. It certainly didn't for me.


This is just one of some amazing stories I've been privy to this week. If he can cure cancer...he certainly can give me an answer about this concern I have in my life.


"I have no other friend beside thee, Oh Lord, won't thou keep me thine own? I need thy helping hand to guide me, for I cannot find the way alone."
