Radio Interview

This afternoon I was interviewed by our local Christian radio station, WAFJ (88.3), about My Journey To A Miracle. They asked me to share what God is teaching me through this experience. That answer is simple. I have learned about a deep spiritual peace, and much stronger faith, and how God can use the most difficult circumstances in my life to bring glory to Him. I do not enjoy having cancer. I dread taking the chemo treatments each week. But I love how God is using me to bring encouragement to so many hopeless people. I love telling others that “nothing is impossible with God”. I love the deep intimacy that I share with my Savior. I love the spiritual renewal that has impacted my life, my family, and my church.

I am learning that God can make our “obstacles” serve His purposes! Like Paul’s “thorn in the flesh” (2 Corinthians 12:7) we often pray for their removal, forgetting that sometimes He allows them for a reason. For example, we pray for patience for many years, but when something begins to test us beyond our endurance, we run from it. We try to avoid it, when in reality the only way genuine patience can be acquired is by enduring the very trials that seem so unbearable today! Do you remember Christ’s reply to Paul’s prayer? “My grace is sufficient for you, and my strength is made perfect in your weakness”. That is what I am learning. His grace is ever present in my daily life! I am praying not only for total & complete healing, but also that God be glorified in my life while I endure affliction!

Thank you WAFJ for partnering with me on My Journey To A Miracle. I will be eternally grateful to Brian, Jeremy, Cleve, John, and Gary for their faithful prayer support, and for sharing my story with their listening audience.

Please remember me in prayer as I resume my chemo treatments tomorrow at noon. God is working! I am blessed! I love you!
