A Tale of Two Cancers

I have written about my experience with stage 4 cancer verses my son’s experience with stage 4 multiple times. As any of you reading this are aware, I am still here 9 years later and my son Zach went into God’s presence one year after his battle started. I know of two other people who mimic close to the same experience. One with an advanced cancer diagnosis is still battling the disease but still going 6 years later and the other given 2 months to live after diagnosis. All cases with cancer are so hard on families as many of you are aware. I doubt there is a person out there who hasn’t known someone or loved someone who has not been affected by this dreadful disease.

In my mind, cancer should not be the “main” story. It is our walk or our relationship with our savior that is what matters. In this world death is coming. How it comes is what we don’t know. We fear pain of the experience and for many the dreaded unknown. If you decide to believe the Holy Scriptures to be true, then the unknown will no longer be a place of fear. Revelation gives us some idea and we can trust in the character of God once we really get to know Him through scripture. Do not let the uncertainities of this world control your thoughts. Focus on Christ. Surrender to Him. Get to know Him through His Holy Word. It will be the most best decision you ever make.
