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.
