"I can do all things through Him, who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13
It's been more than 3 years since my brother first got diagnosed of brain cancer. Everytime I look back at that experience, I still cannot believe that I made it through all that.
At this point, I feel like a huge maiming thorn has been pulled out from my flesh and I am enjoying life once again! Obviously, it was my brother who was suffering- but physically; and I suffered emotionally and almost mentally.
It really is true that God NEVER gives you a challenge that is way beyond what you can handle. He knows exactly what your strengths and weaknesses are; no matter how we whine and complain about how and why each life challenge is seriously difficult, we will all be surprised about how we've finally made it. And we must all take into account that we made it through because of Him, who strengthened us!
