Faith plays an essential role in the life of a believer.  But, some have turned “faith” into a “good work”, which can never please God.  The Bible has much to say about expressions of faith and faith-filled confessions.  It seems that whenever some Christians discover some powerful truth in the Bible, they tend to take it too far to the right, while others take it too far to the left.  What is the balanced truth about faith?

The truth is, in my case, my faith is great.  I am very optimistic and that’s why I chose to go public with my personal journey with this cancer battle.  Faith overcomes the world and all its bondages and problems.  My faith is great, my spirit is on fire for God, and all is well with my soul.  Its my body that has a problem.

I have never been afraid of or confessed cancer in my life.  As a matter of fact, I was shocked when I first learned of it.  But my faith is in God, not what He will or won’t do.  I simply trust Him, because He’s never let me down since I first trusted in Him in April 1971.  And no one better try to tell me I have cancer because I don’t have enough faith!  Those are fighting words.

What do you believe about faith?
