Overview

You don't have to face cancer alone

Traumatized and terrified of cancer? Perhaps you have been diagnosed yourself, or you have a friend or family member who is battling with the disease. You know you must face it-but you do not have to face it alone. Praying Through Cancer is a collection of stories by women who have faced cancer and, with triumphant spirits, found comfort and sometimes even joy in the midst of it.

For these women, cancer was a comma, not a period, in the sentences of their lives. Why? Because they put their faith in the Lord and He strengthened them beyond comprehension. You will laugh and you will cry, but best of all, you will know . . . you are not alone.

Praying Through CANCER

Set Your Heart Free from Fear
By Susan Sorensen Laura Geist

Thomas Nelson

ISBN: 978-0-8499-1882-7

Chapter One

Refined in the Fire

But he knows the way that I take; when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold. -Job 23:10

The doctor was very matter-of-fact. When he told me I had breast cancer, his inflection didn't change, his manner didn't warm up, and he offered nothing in the way of comfort. He left the room, leaving me to weep alone.

While this earthly man had no reaction to my diagnosis, my heavenly Father instantly offered me His words of comfort and peace. A Scripture fragment floated into my mind: "He knows the way I take." In my shock and dismay, I couldn't remember where it was from, but it gave me a lifeline to grab on to.

God, the Creator of the universe, the Almighty One, the Lord of heaven and earth, knew the "way"-the journey I was starting on. That meant He wasn't surprised (although I certainly was) and had already begun to prepare all that I would need along the way. My loving, purposeful Father had factored cancer into His plan for me long before I was aware of it. His eyes were on me; He held me in His tender gaze. I wasn't alone anymore!

God, how can I ever thank You for showing up when I need You the most? I am never alone! You promise to be my refuge and my strength, my ever-present help in trouble. You are with me when I receive exciting, thrilling news, and You are with me even when I hear news that threatens to shake me to my core. Those dreaded words, "It's cancer," don't send You running from the room. Instead, You rush to bring me the assurance that You know exactly where I am.

There is nothing ahead of me that can detour Your will for my life. You will fulfill Your purpose for me. How I praise You for Your unfailing love. You are my God forever and ever, and You will be my guide even to the end. I trust You implicitly. May this furnace of testing show the true colors of my faith in You, and may I come forth as gold.

Kay Warren Senior pastor's wife, Saddleback Church

Today's Tip: When you find yourself facing frightening moments, remind yourself that God stands with you. You are never alone!

Prayer References: Psalm 46:1; Psalm 138:8; Psalm 48: 9, 14; Job 23:10

    closest companion during cancer treatment

    I can not say enough about this book. I received it as a gift after being diagnosed with breast cancer. It was amazingly helpful. I received many well intentioned books but this one was head and shoulders above the rest. It guides the reader from diagnosis through treatment. It was often times just the thing I needed to hear. I felt among friends reading it, friends who knew exactly how I felt. It gave me hope and comfort.
