This one is going to be short. Over the last several weeks you may have noticed that my weekly posts and podcasts have slowed down and have been inconsistent.
Over a month ago I discovered that the cancer has returned. For those who are unaware, in the fall of 2020 I was diagnosed with stage three colorectal cancer. After nearly a year of treatment I had a surgery that removed what remained of the tumor. At the time there was no disease detected which meant I was cancer free and in remission. I was in remission for just around a year before I got the news of the recurrence.
Thankfully the cancer has not metastasized and is once again localized. This makes it easier to treat.
Statistically this type of recurrence happens about 50% of the time. Unfortunately I’m one of those who happen to be on the wrong side of that statistic.
In a few weeks I’ll go back into treatment and I will once again be fighting against the cancer that has chosen to take up residence in my body. So for now things with my posts and podcasts will be inconsistent. Just as before my life will go on but it will be shaped by the battle that lies ahead. Unfortunately that creates some inconsistency in some areas of my life. But one thing remains consistent.
“I wait quietly before God, for my victory comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will never be shaken.” Psalms 62:1-2 NLT
My faith and trust in God remains unshakable and I am asking that you pray with me that this one thing remains consistent because in a season of inconceivable hardship and inconvenience and inconsistency, I need my faith to remain intact. I need it to be unshakable.
