“You can trust that There is a purpose in your pain. You can trust that your trial will become your testimony your pain will become your platform and that your greatest ministry will be birthed out of your deepest misery because God is preparing you for what he’s prepared for you.”
~Josh Howerton
Just listened to this on a walk. Thanks Pastor Josh.
Did God choose Michal and I to walk through this cancer war?
I believe He must have. He knew before time began that Michal was going to go through this, and that I would be beside her in it.
Her greatest ministry we thought was her birth, adoption and stance for life. Yet this was her greatest misery, but God enabled her to walk through it to the very end with grace and mercy and faith.
I’m a witness to her resilience to overcome the fear and the disappointment and to just trust God.
Was she scared. Sure. Was she hopeful throughout, yes. Did doubt try to steal that hope, yes.
Yet in the end she fought that doubt with her stronger hope in God’s promises.
And God came through, for she is with him in Heavenly grandeur!
So many of you have attested to her impact in your lives! That’s no doubt her greatest ministry. The forever remembrance of her in our lives, and her gallant fight will encourage us forever.
Now my greatest ministry must be birthed out of this, my deepest misery.
