O ne of my hospice patients shared this with me. Cancer is so limited . . . It cannot cripple love, It cannot shatter hope, It cannot corrode faith, It cannot eat away peace, It cannot destroy confidence, What Cancer Cannot Do
It cannot kill friendship, It cannot silence courage, It cannot invade the soul,
It cannot reduce eternal life, It cannot quench the Spirit, It cannot lessen the power of the resurrection. If an incurable disease has invaded your life, refuse to let it touch your spirit. Your body can be severely afflicted, and you may have a great struggle. But if you keep trusting God’s love, your spirit will remain strong . . . Why must I bear this pain? I cannot tell–I only know my Lord does all things well. And so I trust in God, my all in all, for He will bring me through, what’er befall. —Smith
O ur greatest enemy is not disease, but despair.
