Lately, there has been some updates on the papers about Billy Wang.
Apparently, he is now suffering from a relapse of his cancer.
This news has set me thinking and reflecting about the lessons learnt from Cat and Dog Theology in church recently.
God has allowed him to be healed from cancer for a number of years and used him to testify to His love and glory through supporting and caring for cancer patients. Now, God has allowed him to suffer from a relapse.
Is he feeling resentful now? Resentful against God etc...apparently not. From what I have read, he is facing up to the situation at hand and even making preparations for his own funeral. I believe he is hoping that the funeral would be yet another opportunity to impact lives.
He is suffering, no doubt, but God probably allowed this to happen because his death would bring about greater glory for Him. Just as his healing for the past years has brought Him much glory as well.
I don't know what his funeral would be like, but somehow, the recent news set me thinking...
Christians are not free from suffering, neither are we absolved from facing death. But the difference lies in how we approach life with its realities and glorify our Father in heaven.
Honestly, I think its hard to be a "dog" who seeks to glorify God in all circumstances. Some pain just seems too hard to bear... but well, I am constantly challenged to remember that,
"It's never about us"
