If your life and love for God have been influenced by John Piper as much as mine have, please keep him in prayer. Dr. Piper, who so often and so biblically teaches believers on how to suffer for Christ, has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. This cancer has a high survivability rate, but please keep him, his family, and his church in prayer, that they would be ever sustained by the knowledge of God’s supremacy in all things, even cancer.
From Dr. Piper’s letter . . .
This news has, of course, been good for me. The most dangerous thing in the world is the sin of self-reliance and the stupor of worldliness. The news of cancer has a wonderfully blasting effect on both. I thank God for that. The times with Christ in these days have been unusually sweet.
Imagine if all believers had such an attitude when bad news came our way.
