Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying  (Romans 12:12; NLT).

Should we accept only good things from the hand of God and never anything bad? (Job 2:10; NLT).

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me (Psalm 23:4; KJV).

Lord,
Please help me
To face my illness

Not with fear,
Or bitterness,

Self-pity,
Or resentment,

Denial,
Or frustration,

But with patient, calm acceptance –
And with you.
