As I write this our Senior Pastor is in hospital again – the intense pain and cancer advancing, the tumor growing again, paralyzing him in the bladder and bowels, and crushing his spine.
The cancer is very aggressive and we had so hoped that with the surgery, radiation and chemo that there was a real improvement. But this weeks MRI showed the tumor is right back to where it was when he had his surgery.
We need a miracle.
I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. Revelation 3:8
And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Hab.2:2-4
- Worship during the good times
- Worship during the trials and tribulations
- Worship during the sicknesses and pain
- Worship during the victories
- Worship during the pain of separation
- Worship during the pain of the loss of loved ones
- Worship and rejoice at each new babe in Christ
- Worship during financial hardship
and
- Worship during times of weariness, hopelessness and trying of our faith.
Life will always throw things at us that can be unbearable but when we chose to keep our eyes on Jesus , when we chose to look to him, to wait on him, to believe him, to believe the prophets he has sent, to believe his promises and to believe his Word, we can come to that place of praise, that place of worship that deep place of peace and trust and we will come out the other side no matter what happens.
Our God is Able!
