Only God Knows Our Time
On our drive to the beach, I’d start panicking and thinking about time. I was powerless over my life, and this terrified me. I cried with my head in my hands and told her, “Sis, it’s not like people say about dying. They say you will be ready and accept it when it's your time, but I am terrified, sis! I am not ready to die!” I cried, and
Prayer for Those seeking the divine healing of God,
Lord, I come before you every day for all who need your healing hand and for anyone who calls on me for advice or needs words of encouragement because serious illness has touched their life.

It took one crisis, then another, and many more before I hit a life-changing crossroads in my life where I was facing the most traumatic crisis of all...-my death. In 2010, I had a recurrence of stage 4 breast cancer and became severely ill after surgery and radiation with a staph infection; cancer had spread to my bones and all lobes of my lungs. My doctor told me I had only months to live, and at that moment, shock hit me, and I panicked.
It wasn't until I took a walk one evening on the beach just before sunset. I will never forget what happened that day. I walked until I came to a private area where no one was around. I lay down in the warm sand…
