Blessed after Cancer ^©

If God would have stopped my Cancer from coming,
Would I have focused on Him or continued on life’s humming?

If I was never sick and always well,
Would I keep Christ to myself, or would I tell?

If we never knew we were going to die,
Would we listen to God, or believe the lie?

God says all things are temporal and will soon fade away,
But in Him you can stay even until that very last day!

So I am truly blessed, though sick with Cancer,
I am closer to God and we know He is the answer!

I pray in our journey we always see God’s hand,
Though we have heartache and sickness, these He never planned.

These bad things began so long ago,
They are in our system from our head to our toe.

We’ve adapted to this system through envy and strife,
Believing the lie that this is the only life!

God’s plan is better, eternal life indeed;
There is nothing for you to do, if you will only heed!

On the cross Christ said, “It is Finished!”
Do you believe?
