 Hi, All!

I am not saying I agree or disagree with this article (I havent even read it fully), but someone forwarded to me this website with an article about not wasting cancer.  I thought I would post for those who might benefit by it.  If you no like, no problem!  

This link forwarded to me was Justin Taylor's site:

The link that has all the stuff to it is

Here's the outline:

1. You will waste your cancer if you do not believe it is designed for you by God.
2. You will waste your cancer if you believe it is a curse and not a gift.
3. You will waste your cancer if you seek comfort from your odds rather than from God.
4. You will waste your cancer if you refuse to think about death.
5. You will waste your cancer if you think that "beating" cancer means staying alive rather than cherishing Christ.
6. You will waste your cancer if you spend too much time reading about cancer and not enough time reading about God.
7. You will waste your cancer if you let it drive you into solitude instead of deepen your relationships with manifest affection.
8. You will waste your cancer if you grieve as those who have no hope.
9. You will waste your cancer if you treat sin as casually as before.
10. You will waste your cancer if you fail to use it as a means of witness to the truth and glory of Christ.

AGAIN...I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with these statements...just forwarding because some people might like it.  I am sure not everyone will agree or like and that's okay!

You've got to be kidding me! Edited to add that I am responding to the points in the article, not your post!
