When asked to share the story of God's grace through my cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery, several words flashed through my mind in an instant. They all began with P: Prayer, Peace, Power, Provision, Promises, Perfect love, Protection, Providence, People, Plan, Purpose, and Praise. The following morning I read this Scripture: Genesis 32:10, "I am unworthy of all the loving kindness, and all the faithfulness which you have shown to your servant."
Friday, July 19, 2019, my husband Kevin and I were in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It was our daughter's wedding day. I was alone in a dressing room just a few hours before the wedding—the alterations of my dress were not right. Standing in the mirror I saw something I had never seen before—two very tell-tale signs of breast cancer. It was startling and took my breath away.
By God’s grace, I gathered my thoughts and drew near to the Lord in PRAYER: "May this be nothing. But, here I am Lord, but whether in life or in death, I am yours and yours alone. Your will be done. May you be glorified." I was reminded of Philippians 4:4: "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I will say rejoice . . . Do not be anxious about anything, but by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known to God." We can draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
As I rejoiced in the Lord and made my requests know to Him the Lord gave me PEACE. The peace of God which surpasses all understanding guarded my heart and mind in Christ Jesus.

This is the story of God's amazing grace, tender love, and precious promises given to me through my breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. It was as if the Lord put a necklace of His grace, love, and truth around my neck. May He receive all the glory! I pray it will be a great encouragement to you.
