All the Time, He is Good
My child, I know you are wondering “Why me?” You might even think I am somehow the cause of this cancer. I understand it can be difficult to trust Me for healing if you think I’m punishing you for something, or you think your prayers might be contrary to My plans for you.
I am a good God not a mean, cruel, and vindictive Father who makes people sick. It is not My purpose to cause you to suffer but to give you a rich and satisfying life! When I was here on earth, I didn’t go around inflicting people with disease and calamity. No, I went around doing good! I healed every person who came to me.
I understand how a serious diagnosis like cancer can tempt you to doubt My goodness, but there is another whose purpose is to steal, kill, and destroy. The thief is behind the evil in this world and the sickness that threatens to destroy my children. That’s why my servant Paul tells you to be strong in My power so you can stand firm against his strategies and tricks. One of his tricks is to cause you to doubt My goodness.
Yes, child, it is true that I can use your suffering for My glory and purposes. But I am not the author of sickness and disease. When you are tempted to doubt My love and goodness, think about this: Would you ever strike your own children with a devastating disease as a punishment for their misbehavior? If your own children asked you for a fish, would you give them a snake? If you know how to give good gifts to your children, then how much more will your heavenly Father give to you? My child, it is not My nature to be cruel, vindictive, or indifferent. I am a good Father who loves and cares for you, infinitely more so than the best earthly parent. I am good, and I do only good.
Lord, thank you that you are the source of everything good in my life. You are the Light of Heaven that came to penetrate into the darkness! You never change and never cast a shifting shadow. Please shine your light into this cancer that lurks in the dark and hidden places of my body! Shine your goodness into this evil. Expose it and replace it with your glorious light!
