Dear Donna and Suzanne,

We are praying for you, Suzanne, that you be completely healed of your breast cancer and that it does not return to any area of your body.

My sister-in-law Allison, and a close friend of our family Linda, are both survivors of breast cancer, and to date none of it has returned. Besides following their doctors' directives, they maintain a healthy diet and rely on the prayers of their loved ones for continuous, on-going, day-by-day healing.

In our letter to Doug Blakemore we address the cancer epidemic that is raging. Everyone of us knows a family member or friend who has it. Many have survived. And as we stated before :  the testimony of cancer-survivors is powerful in building up one's faith and trust in God for healing. The internet has many stories of cancer-survivors and forums for sharing experiences, strengths and hopes with one another.

As you both pray, and as we Doves add our prayers to the throne room of God, He hears our prayers ... "Hear O LORD when I cry with my voice" Psalm 27:7 ; Ps. 55:2;
Ps. 69:17; Ps. 143:7 ( and more).

Not only does God hear us, but He answers us :
" I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place" Psalm 118:5 ; ( see also Ps. 91:15; Is. 65:24; Luke 11:9; Mark 11:24. )

That daily hoping, praying and venting to the Lord is as healthy medicine to both soul and body.
After all, God has said : "I am the LORD that healeth thee' Exodus 15: 26
May you experience that healing, and may His peace surround you both.

In Him,
Jim Goodrick
