This is a letter written to a dear friend once diagnosed with breast cancer. I post this as an encouragement to all male and female alike drafted into this Cancer Walk. I encourage ALL to Put God in place of fear.
Dear…….
Your are God’s child and you are about to go on a journey that only you can testify about the graciousness of our Lord God. No one asks to be a participant but are randomly inducted based on our fruit bearing obligation to Christ Jesus, in my opinion.
I’m reminded of the verse in Luke where Elizabeth is pregnant with child and her world view looked at it as a “disgrace.” God’s view was totally opposite.
Luke 1: 24 After these days Elizabeth his wife became pregnant,
and she kept herself in seclusion for five months, saying, 25 “This is the way the Lord has dealt with me in the days when He looked with favor upon me, to take away my disgrace among men.”
Look at the real truth revealed here by Jesus himself….
John 9: 3 Jesus answered, “It was neither that this man sinned, nor his parents; but it was so that the works of God might be displayed in him.

Although the Bible is already written and canonized, Jesus’ payer in the book of John speaks specifically to those who belong to him and to those who are left in this world after he departed that will believe in Him. That is you and your sisters in Christ who are supporting and praying for you day and night.
John 15:15 “I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one.
16 “They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
17 “Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth.
18 “As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
19 “For their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.
20 “I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word;
21 that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.
You are worthy of our prayers as you fight for your healing. Your worth coming from your relationship as God’s child and our relationship as His children. Your worth also as a faithful, encourager and friend to all who come in contact with your spirit. Nothing can separate you from the love of Christ Jesus nor the love of those who are supporting you on this journey.
Let’s take hold of God’s promises one at a time and I want to start with this one…
Nothing can separate those who belong to the Father despite the trials we may face.
John 10:27 “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;
28 and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.
29 “My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.
30 “I and the Father are one.”
