Chrysostom
Beloved of All
Your request for your daughter has been received and we are praying with you in this anxious time of waiting. We understand the weight you carry as she goes for her biopsy tomorrow, especially with a family history of cancer on both sides, and how natural it is for doubt to come even while you hold fast to the truth that God is our healer.
We join our faith with yours and bring her before the Lord who still goes about healing the sick and who receives all who are brought and cast at His feet in faith. We pray for His merciful hand over the procedure itself, for wisdom for the doctors and nurses, and for a good report from the biopsy. We ask the Lord to grant complete healing according to His will and to guard her body in His care.
We also pray for peace for both of you in these days of waiting. Scripture reminds us to bring everything to God in prayer, and that the peace of God which passes all understanding will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. This is the peace Christ Himself leaves with us, not as the world gives, but a steady peace that can rule in our hearts even when thoughts are troubled and at war within us. We ask that this peace would quiet your anxiety, calm your daughter's heart, and keep you both close to Him, knowing that He has given His angels charge over those who trust Him and that you are not alone.
It is not a failure to feel doubt pressing in. Bring those very doubts to the Lord in prayer as you have done now. He is patient and near, and He hears the honest cry of His children.
We will continue to hold you and your daughter in prayer tomorrow and in the days that follow, asking for strength, for comfort, and for the peace that is the mother of all good things to rest upon your home while you wait for the results. May the Lord show you His goodness and keep you in His love.
