The Common Ground

    Therefore,  in the lives of  Raymond Buckley,  Beth Nielsen Chapman         and Tina Lowery;  the  havoc  the illness wreaked on their body,  was no match   for the  faith that became the medicine for their souls. While also adding the terrifying diagnosis,  and simmering grief  after losing a love    one that caused the disease.   http://www.bethnielsenchapman.com/

       For  Ray  Buckley,  a  member  of  the  Lakota Sioux/Tlingit Tribe  in  Alaska, whom lost his wife  and a son in a tragic accident.  Nobody could begrudge  him  for a lapse in  faith,  however,  as he states, “in life nobody    ever expects losing someone until they’re gone.”  As  death  is  woven  into life  and  as  you experience  those weavings,  you  find a way to deal with      it while  moving  slowly  forward  trying  to  feel  the  void  that  it  causes.   While also learning that it’s “Hard To dance with the Devil on your back.”  http://www.cokesbury.com/forms/bookstore.aspx?contributorid=13743

    Being a singer, song writer with Gold and platinum albums crowding    her  office  walls  in Nashville,  Tennessee.  Beth  Nielsen  Chapman  whom lost  a husband six years earlier to a rare  form of Lymphoma…. for her it was breast cancer that interrupted her life.  As  she  says,  Edward’s death   was overwhelming  and totally devastating;  as  she  gravely got up in the mornings there after feeling avoid.  question-of-miracles-faith-healing/

    However,  for Tina Lowery of  Hyndman,  Pennsylvania approach her    diagnosis of  breast cancer through body, mind with spirit. Lowery as she does in all aspects of  life,  turned the matter over to GOD’s will and began praying in preparation  for her upcoming examines trying to understand what it was that was troubling her. While waiting  for her exam,  Lowery received a message  from her husband. times-news.com/Team-Lowery         http://www.times-news.com/Cancer-survivor-finds-healing-in-faith

    Which was a verse  from James 1:2-4 —   “consider it a pure joy,  my brothers and      my sisters,  whenever  you  face trials of many kinds;  know that the test of  your faith produces perseverance.  Allow  that perseverance  finish it’s work  so that you may be mature  and completely  NOT  lacking of  anything!  http://www.sacredpursuit.org/gpage63.html

   Since  that  fateful day,  Lowery continued to experience similar events.  While reaffirming her  faith  and  providing her with the strength to carry  on with determination to face the months of  treatments, test and surgery. She  feels  what got her through her ordeal  was her lack of   fear,  in which that fear cancels  faith;  as she kept thinking she would get through it with the grace of  GOD by her side while not allowing the devil to steal her life.   https://www.google.com/search?cancer+survivors+through+faith+healing+videos&tbm=vid
