What Would Job Do?


Job 2:9-10 says,
"Then his wife said to him, “Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God and die.” But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips."
Here lately I've been thinking a lot about this passage. So many times I find myself wishing for heaven in this life, but that's not what's promised in this life. My goal through this whole cancer ordeal is to be able to say, "I desired God's glory more than anything else."

The Second Time This Year

It's official. I have a second cancer in my body this year. You heard that right, not cancer for the second time because it's come back, but second cancer. Earlier this year I had testicular cancer. Now I have thyroid cancer. I will be having surgery to remove more body parts for the third time this year (hence the picture of Luke having his hand cut off by his dad in Empire Strikes Back. Oh... spoiler!). This stinks, but God is still in control. Through all of this, I want him to be glorified. Romans 8:18 says, "For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us." God, show us your glory!

I'm On Social Media

I'm now on social media (like all the cool kids these days). I've made sure to make my handles both OG and as morbid as the name of this blog. I can now be followed on Twitter at @danielhascancer and on Instagram at danielhascancer . For all you hipsters out there that have been using Instagram for a long time, please be patient with me. Earlier this morning it took me over five minutes just to figure out how to take and post a picture. I plan to use these accounts to feature things that are going on in my life. For instance, today I got my hair cut with my kids. Hence this picture. I also plan on using Instagram more as I go through procedures and hospital stuff, so if you like to see procedure stuff or your just curious, follow me there.

Happy Labor Day

Happy Labor Day! Today, I broke all the rules my dad taught me growing up. Dad always said that the best way to celebrate Labor Day was by laboring. Today, the only thing that labored was my Lazy Boy chair as it held me up. I relaxed, I read, I watched some TV, and then I went for a nice long motorcycle ride. We had a wonderful holiday.
