"Let the treasures of the trial form within me as I go. And at the end of this long passage, let me leave them at your throne. May this journey bring a blessing. May I rise on wings of faith. And at the end of my heart's testing, with your likeness let me wake."
My recent MRI results have shown a recurrence of cancer at the original tumor spot. At this time there is no sign of the cancer anywhere else, which is a blessing. I will have surgery on January 14.
I have decided to go on a daily "Treasure Hunt" from God's Word to remind me of His great and precious promises that I can stand upon.
Treasure Hunting-Day One
"Because you have kept my word about patient endurance." Rev. 3:10
"Patience is more than endurance. A saint's life is in the hands of God like a bow and arrow in the hands of an archer. God is aiming at something the saint cannot see, and He stretches and strains, and every now and again the saint says-"I cannot stand anymore." God does not heed, He goes on stretching till His purpose is in sight, then He lets fly. Trust yourself in God's hands.
For what do you have need of patience just now?
Maintain your relationship to Jesus Christ by the patience of faith." Oswald Chambers
