don't give up

fe is a journey. We will always experience changing seasons in this life, but the good news is: we can feel safe because God has good and beautiful purposes in every season of our life, including the season of uncertainty.

Everyone will face a season of uncertainty in life, and no one can escape from it. However, God has good news: no valley is too deep, and no valley is too dark.

My friend, if you feel that your valley is too deep and dark today, I want to encourage you that you can still walk through your valley victorious. Your valley is not as dark as you imagine.

When I was diagnosed with cancer, my family and I had to face many uncertainties. I have faced many hardships in the past, but cancer made me feel a fear that I had never felt before. I was trapped in a valley so deep I didn't know how to climb out, it was so dark I didn't know where to walk.

However, this experience reminded me of God's words in Psalm 23, a beautiful chapter in the Bible that I have always loved. This verse has been my favorite chapter since God brought me out of darkness and let me enter into His love. The Valley of the Death Shadow (verse 4) is exactly where I am, grappling with the prospect of dying from cancer and leaving my loved ones with a lot of unresolved issues.

However, wait a minute! God is not talking about the abyss; He spoke of the valley of the death shadow. It's just a shadow and not death itself!

My friend, if you have been diagnosed with cancer or a life-threatening condition, I want to tell you that there is still hope. Like walking in darkness, we have God, the Holy Spirit, our friend, to walk with us on this journey, our source of light in the darkness, and a helper to guide us to the finish line. God has everything we need, and He is everything we need.
