7 Powerful Prayers for Women With CancerSample

Somehow, Someday

Battling cancer is hard enough, but the relentless skirmishes and setbacks that go with it are enough to make the strongest woman want to give up. Frightening test results, mounting medical bills, and lengthy complications darken our days like clouds of swarming locusts, consuming our energy, finances, health, and hope. In their midst you may feel unseen and forgotten. But you’re not. God not only sees us cowering from the onslaught, but promises to restore everything that’s been devoured. He knows the intimate details of your loss. You can trust he’ll make up for it. Somehow. Some day.

Do you really see what cancer has stolen from me, Lord? Here in the darkness of one setback after another, it doesn’t always feel like it. So today I’m going to choose to believe you. I’m going to choose to live in the confidence of your promise. Even if I can’t imagine how you’ll repay me—and no matter whether it’s this side of heaven or not—may I stand taller, stronger, and more hope-filled in the face of today’s news. Lord, fuel me with faith.
