It wasn\u2019t forced. It wasn\u2019t denial. It wasn\u2019t shock. It was something deeper, something holy, something that didn\u2019t make sense in the natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-37c1a664 wp-block-paragraph\">My smile wasn\u2019t rooted in the diagnosis; it was rooted in the presence of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-e6388b90 wp-block-paragraph\">When the doctor spoke the words out loud, they seemed to float in the air for a moment, suspended between fear and faith. I remember looking at Danny, squeezing his hand, and feeling a stillness fall over the room. Not fear. Not panic. Just peace \u2014 fragile, yet undeniable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-d6321522 wp-block-paragraph\">It made no sense. Cancer is supposed to break you. It\u2019s supposed to consume your thoughts, unravel your emotions, and steal your joy. But in that moment, joy rose up inside me like a quiet rebellion against fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-4e87d233 wp-block-paragraph\">That smile was more than an expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-760fa88c wp-block-paragraph\">It was a declaration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-b3fde108 wp-block-paragraph\">A statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-5c3fc82b wp-block-paragraph\">A spiritual posture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-e1a1d737 wp-block-paragraph\">It was the whisper of my soul saying, \u201cThis will not move me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-794f62aa wp-block-paragraph\">In that moment, I knew \u2014 not from my strength, but from God\u2019s \u2014 that the cancer had not come to destroy me. It had come to reveal God\u2019s glory in a way I had never experienced before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-e771eb39 wp-block-paragraph\">My husband Danny looked at me, shocked. I think part of him wondered if I understood what the doctor said. But he also saw something shift in me \u2014 something strong, something anchored, something supernatural. And that strength wasn\u2019t mine. It was God\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-60a93f71 wp-block-paragraph\">That day, my smile became a memorial stone \u2014 a moment I would carry with me through every biopsy, every appointment, every sleepless night. A reminder that fear doesn\u2019t get to write my story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-e11f4c62 wp-block-paragraph\">Looking back, I understand why that smile came so naturally: God\u2019s presence carries joy, even in the darkest valleys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-897b91e7 wp-block-paragraph\">It wasn\u2019t the kind of joy that comes from happiness or circumstances. It was the kind of joy that only comes from knowing who walks beside you. A joy that settles deep into your spirit and says: \u201cEven here, even now, God is with you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-e1401f9b wp-block-paragraph\">In the days that followed, that moment in the doctor\u2019s office became a reference point. When fear tried to sneak in, I remembered how God steadied me when I should have been falling apart. When doubt whispered, \u201cWhat if\u2026?\u201d my spirit remembered, \u201cBut God\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-d4fb48f7 wp-block-paragraph\">I realized something powerful: Joy isn\u2019t the absence of a hard reality \u2014 it\u2019s the presence of God in the middle of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-d73a6938 wp-block-paragraph\">My smile wasn\u2019t strength; it was surrender. It was the Holy Spirit rising in me when my flesh didn\u2019t have the ability to stand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-6448027b wp-block-paragraph\">So many times, I returned to that moment, mentally reliving the peace that filled the room. It became evidence that God was not only with me \u2014 He was ahead of me, preparing each step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-5e1b35ce wp-block-paragraph\">Not one appointment surprised Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-ce39507d wp-block-paragraph\">Not one biopsy worried Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-0a08b3ec wp-block-paragraph\">Not one moment overwhelmed Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-8bb67134 wp-block-paragraph\">God was already working behind the scenes, aligning the right doctors, the right timing, and the right support system. And every time fear tried to overshadow that truth, God reminded me of the peace He gave me when I heard the diagnosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-a33a096f wp-block-paragraph\">That peace didn\u2019t come from understanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"first-line-indent has-custom-css wp-custom-css-b78ae876 wp-block-paragraph\"><em>It came from trusting.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>This is an excerpt from the book, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dovechristianpublishers.com\/products\/faith-over-fear\"><strong>Faith over Fear: A Healing Journey<\/strong><\/a>&#8221; by Kimberly Allen, a devotional for women facing breast cancer or other hard battles of life.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inspirational encouragement for your unsure moments \u201cGod is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.\u201d\u2013 Psalm 46:5 On the day I heard the words \u201cYou have breast cancer,\u201d something unexpected happened \u2014 I smiled.
