I too thought that was a great message to share so I'm glad you liked it.
Still praying for you and the easing of your pain. So glad there is no sign of cancer. PTL!

When Tarah was in high school, she had a growing fear that she would someday battle a serious illness. So she began to prayasking God to spare her from this imagined illness. Then she reached a turning point in her thinking, and she yielded her future to God no matter what.
Years later, Tarahs doctor found a cancerous tumor, which was successfully treated with chemotherapy. Tarah says that because she had entrusted her future to God, she was ready when the disease came. Her problem became an avenue for Gods strength.
This idea of surrendering to God can be seen in Pauls life as well. His surrender came after the problema thorn in the fleshhad developed (2 Cor. 12:7). Paul prayed repeatedly about this difficulty, pleading for the Lord to take it from him. But God responded, My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness (v.9). Understanding this, Paul adopted a positive view: Most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. . . . For when I am weak, then I am strong (vv.9-10).
In facing our fears and struggles, its vital that we yield totally to God. When we do, God can use our problems as an avenue for His power.
