I never thought I’d
write a book, especially about my own experience with cancer. It all started
over 2 years ago in June 2011. I wrote a journal of events and resources I used
during the process from my surgery to recovery. God spoke to my heart in
November, 2011, to share what I had written in my journal. I typed it up the
year I was on medical leave, then shared it with my pastor’s wife, Shannon
Zetterlund. After reading it, she expressed her heart to me, and made the
comment that it should be put in book form for others to read. This last summer
I decided to do that.
I believe the word of
God to be the final authority in my life. With that said, it is imperative that
God be glorified in this book. His mercy and love is what this book is all
about, even though I call it my journey. He helped me through it all and I am
forever grateful for the knowledge of God’s word that built faith in my heart
to believe His word above all the other voices I had to combat.
