Cancer and God’s Word: a Devotional
On the hard cancer days, sometimes the dark thoughts of cancer can block our view of Christ.
To battle dark lies, we need a good weapon - the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. (Ephesians 6:17)
This means that to battle the lies we must think, speak and believe Scripture. We all need some Scriptures for when the lies get into our heads.
