The peace of God surpasses all understanding
Monday 16/10/06
In the last two days, through the love of our brothers and sisters, I was referred to consult several liver specialists. They all said that my tumour was too big for the treatment to be effective, particularly the chemotherapy I am receiving will not be very helpful. After hearing their opinion, my heart sank, and my spirit was in a conflict. If the chemotherapy helps to shrink the tumour, I will bear with the discomfort of the side effects. But if it doesn’t help, what is the use? Therefore the thought of abandoning the chemotherapy suddenly appeared, and be substituted with faithful prayers and healthy dietetic therapy. This is really not an easy decision, but while I was worshiping at home, God gave me the peace that surpasses all our understanding. Let my heart lives peacefully within Him, may God guide my mind. Before my wife went to church for the Sunday worship yesterday morning, we read Psalms 43:3-4 together:
“O send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling. Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; and I will praise you with the harp, O God, my God”
