You know, Love, I wonder if St Therese of Lisieux and her sisters might ever have wondered why their Mum got breast cancer. Lacking modern medicine and treatment, she succumbed when St Therese was four. Your sister has better medical hopes.I’m sorry, this is my 1st post on here, I came on here to look for help. I have been cursing god and have disowned him and I feel so alone now. My sister has been diagnosed with breast cancer and I cannot understand why, why would god let this happen to her… she is such a good person and has always done good… why does it happen to nice people…I prayed and prayed to god that her results would be ok and he didn’t answer me…pls help
No prayer goes unanswered. Though, that doesn’t mean the answer is always “Yes.” God says “no” or “wait” quite often, my friend. You see, if it’s not according to His will, it will not happen. To give up faith over that is just sad. My grandma, other grandma, grandpa, uncle, two friends, and some other loved ones have died very recently. I’m talking in a few years span. In fact, my grandma died on Christmas. My grandpa died on his birthday. My other grandma died right before her 50th marriage anniversary. My uncle died right before his birthday, and after a while of fighting to keep alive due to liver failure. I now have an aunt who is about to die due to diabetes, another friend about to die due to cancer, and a Catholic friend from here who just got diagnosed with cancer. Yet, my faith remains strong. Don’t be mad at God. First and foremost, you, I, and Satan alike are all responsible.We’ve all sinned my friend, and everything that goes wrong with us is actually justice for what we’ve done to God. We’ve all sinned, and that includes your sister. I’m sorry for what’s going on with her, but while she might be a nice person, no one is good. Only God is good. I’m not good, nor is my grandpa Jack good for saving his two brothers in WW2. Even the man with one sin is guilty of breaking the whole law of God. This is not to say your sister has no way of salvation, nor the same for you. In fact, we deserve to be dead right now. But God put your sins on Jesus, who was without sin, yet became sin, and sin was nailed to the cross. So believe on Jesus Christ my friend, and He will bear your burdens. Talk to your priest. Talk to someone.I’m sorry, this is my 1st post on here, I came on here to look for help. I have been cursing god and have disowned him and I feel so alone now.

I too once was where you are now. I was angry when I prayed and prayed for someone I loved dearly to be spared from suffering, but they weren’t. Gradually God brought me back to faith in Him. It is very lonely and painful. Just look at a crucifix and know that God too knew the pain you are feeling when His Son died on the cross. But as Trishie mentioned, for your sister there is hope. I have 4 friends and a mother that are breast cancer survivors, so much progress has been made in medicine. I will pray for your sister and for you.I’m sorry, this is my 1st post on here, I came on here to look for help. I have been cursing god and have disowned him and I feel so alone now.

My love and a hug,forgive me, but reacting to an illness by blaming God is childish. Things happen for a reason, God has a plan for everything. Why does God allow illness and death, look no further than the creation story in Genesis, we as a race sinned we have to pay the price for our own foolishness, maybe your sister has cancer because having that struggle in life might contribute to her and her (your) family’s personal holiness. maybe God is deciding to call your sister home (by that i mean heaven) because she accomplished what she has been sent here to do, I dont know, i cant, you cant, no one can know God’s reasons for doing things or allowing some things to come to pass (read the book of Job in the Bible).I’m sorry, this is my 1st post on here, I came on here to look for help.

. . . . Repose peacefully in the arms of your heavenly Spouse, Who loves you much; hold yourself on the cross of sickness as tranquilly and silently as is possible. If the cause of your illness be the wound of divine love which embalms yO,ur soul, it is well if you die under such a stroke: yours will be a death more precious than life."*
She had breast cancer way before she went for the test. To wait after her appointments and pray to God that the results are OK, is putting the buggy before the horse. Although you did not know the results until they came in, she did had breast cancer while you were praying. It is like when I was younger. I would not study for my test, write the test and know darn well I was not prepared and then pray to God for a miracle that I pass. It was too late for prayers.…I prayed and prayed to god that her results would be ok and he didn’t answer me…pls help
I know a very poor widow in Africa who is still praising God. She lost her husband and 3 kids to HIV/AIDS but she is still praising God. If you curse God, you are killing yourself and if you “disown” God, you are digging your own grave. Our limited minds cannot understand everything about God. God is a Loving Father and He wants the best for His children. I am not saying breast cancer is the best for your sister but God knows best. God knows why. If you don’t understand God, don’t curse. There are many things to consider first before cursing God. God did not put you in Africa to die of hunger in the first place. It is always good to count all your blessings before cursing God. It is never too late! God is a Loving Father and is ready to forgive and forget anytime. Just go to Him in prayers. Tell Him your sins and tell him you are very sorry for your sins and He will forgive and give you a new life. To answer your question “Where is God Now?”, my answer is GOD IS HERE. God is not asleep! He lives and He knows best.I’m sorry, this is my 1st post on here, I came on here to look for help. I have been cursing god and have disowned him and I feel so alone now.
