Hebrews 12:1-3 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider HIM that endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

2 Peter 3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.
Keep yourself by the Word of God, that when Jesus returns HE will find you that day "in peace, without spot, and blameless."

Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put HIM to an open shame.

1 Chronicles 29:11-13 Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty; for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is Thine; Thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and Thou art exalted as head above all. Both riches and honor come of Thee, and Thou reignest over all; and in Thy hand is power and might; and in Thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. Now therefore, our God, we thank Thee, and praise Thy glorious name.

(Comments by Pam Padgett)
In January, 2023, I completed treatments for high-grade, muscle invasive bladder cancer. Last week a CT scan and blood tests were done to see if there was any evidence of cancer. No cancer was found.
I met with an oncologist this week to go over the test results. She commented multiple times about what a high-grade cancer I had had. She told me that the chemotherapy used in my treatment is used only in special cases because it is so hard to go through. Interestingly, I was tired while getting this chemotherapy, but not sick, so it wasn't hard for me to go through.
The initial treatment plan in October, 2022, was for my bladder to be surgically removed after the completion of 4 rounds of this chemotherapy. I didn't mind chemotherapy but was very troubled about having my bladder removed, so I asked God if there was any way I might be spared having my bladder removed.
God made a way for me to learn about chemotherapy with radiation which, according to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, might give the same benefits as chemotherapy with bladder removal. And God worked it out for the medical people to change my treatment to chemo with radiation, even though they didn't think this was best in my situation. Now, 2 years later, I still have my natural bladder and am also free of cancer.
Throughout my cancer treatment God helped me and upheld me with scriptures, dreams, words brought directly to my mind, and an open vision given to Joan Boney. In addition, I feel sure I was helped in ways I wasn't aware of at the time, like getting through the "hard" chemotherapy with just fatigue.

I am filled with gratitude toward God in what HE has done in this. Surely, nothing is impossible with God.
