One of the most dreaded sentence a patient can hear is, “You have cancer.” These words bring a chill to the heart. Although great progress is being made in treating this disease recovery can be long and painful, and many people do not survive.
An enthusiastic believer in Christ, Dan Richardson, lost his battle with cancer, But his life demonstrated that even though the physical body may be destroyed by disease, the spirit can remain triumphant. This poem was distributed at his memorial service.
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,
It cannot kill friendship,
It cannot shut out memories
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. – Dave Egner
Our greatest enemy is not disease but despair.
