God has shown me a little tiny piece of the enormous burden you bear.

The worry.

The fear.

The pain.

I am still very sore and bruised one week after a biopsy. I cannot even begin to imagine the suffering of a mastectomy. And I’m talking about just the physical trauma alone.

I’m not saying I get it or anything like that. I don’t. But I have a new heart of empathy and understanding specifically for this disease.

To you, breast cancer patients and survivors, I am thinking and praying for you today.

Life can really really really suck. But there is hope in a future life without pain and without sorrow.

In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. John 16:33b
