Cancer reveals God’s goodness
March 1, 2013 by John Knight
Dianne must regularly see her medical oncologist to check on things. Thankfully, for more than 7 years things have been stable. She also regularly receives an infusion.
She texted me today:
I’m in the infusion chair. Should be done in 15 minutes. Always reminded of God’s goodness.
Amen. We wouldn’t have chosen this path of life, but God’s goodness and our need for him is so much more clear to us because of her cancer. And we see his kindness in these regular reminders of our finiteness as well.
And it reminds me of that great hymn, Amazing Grace:
Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come.
’Tis grace has kept me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home
