Proverbs 8:32-35 "Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
Blessed is the man that hearth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.
You are probably wondering what do these verses have to do with being cancer free. Well, I'm going to share several things and I think you'll see how it all ties together.
See back on May 9, 2017 when I heard, "you have stage 3 possibly stage 4 breast cancer I was devasted. I didn't really ask why, I was more in shock than anything. I could only think of my husband, children, grandchildren, future daughter in laws and my son in law as well as my dear parents. What was I to tell them? How was I going to get my youngest through his Senior yr? Just thousands of thoughts.
Well, we knew the key was to stay close to God and he would carry us through our journey. As I went through each stage of me having cancer, I had different verses, songs, sayings that I would strongly lean on.
This passage wasn't one of them, but today as I was reading it really spoke to me.
So I'm going to take a few thoughts of this passage and share my thoughts with you:
Vr 32 "....Blessed are they that keep my ways."
I personally believe that because we kept faithful, we didn't give up, we continued to love the Lord, serve him and do as he tells in His word: that is why I'm now Cancer free.
It would have been easy to say nope, I'm sick, I have to many appointments and to much to worry about to not keep His ways. I continued piano lessons until I had to stop. Which I hope to pick back up really soon. Every church service I could be in I was there, even some I probably should have been home.
Vr 33 "Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not."
As you sit in church take and heed the instruction your pastor gives. As you sit in ladies meetings take heed to the instruction the speaker gives. Don't refuse it, be wise and use it.
Vr. 35 "For whoso findeth me findeth life..." if you are saved you have the life that is mentioned here. If you aren't this is something God wants you to have life in Him.
John 3:16 " For For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." Wow! Everlasting life! You not only find life in Christ but you receive everlasting life. Understanding that your a sinner, that God loves you so much he gave his son for you and he wants you to have eternal life. Salvation is plus nothing an minus nothing it's simply trusting in Christ not your good works. Friend if you are reading this back in May of 1988, I settled it, nailed it down that I was saved and going to heaven. Today, June 8, 2018 you can do the same!
I am Blessed Beyond Measure all because i trusted, I kept in the way, and God in return cured me of a very aggressive cancer. I'll to the best of my ability continue to do as I've been doing.
