0456 - Why Worry When God Is Near? (Philippians 4:6-7) English-Tagalog Expositional Sermons

- Christianity
"But healing is not God's plan for everyone in this life. And there are many other ways to waste our cancer. As I prayed for myself, and continue to do so, I also pray for you that we will not waste this pain. That God knows, and cares, and rules, is enough. The passage of Scripture that came to my mind while I waited for the biopsy was 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10, 'God has not destined us for wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us so that whether we are awake or asleep we might live with him.' That is enough. I am not destined for wrath, but to live with Christ. Until we see him, may God help us not waste our health or our cancer."
—John Piper
