Feeling and Questions

Confusion; Misunderstanding; Doubt; How can my cancer be “good for me?  How can any cancer be considered “good”?

Devotion
Dear God, so often I hear Christians say You are working for our good.  Yet, right now, I don’t feel You are working for my good.  Help me realize that Your promise is a narrow promise to those who are the called.  Help me be one of the called! Help me remember what I face today does not change the eternal Word of God.  Help me come to not only understand Your promises but also believe in it.  While I might not fully understand how this cancer is “working for the good” I do know it has intensified my communication and relationship with You.  For as I accept and live your promise, I will find peace, hope and (yes) even joy that You aew looking after me.  In Jesus name I pray.  Amen

Scripture:

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him and who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28) 

Trust in the Lord will al your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge him and he will make straight your paths. (Proverbs 3:4-7)
