My Bible: reasons to believe in the power of the Bible
‘Romans 15.13 became especially important to me because my husband had a couple of strokes and in September 2016 had similar symptoms again. He had an MRI scan and got a letter saying that it was “highly suspicious” and they thought it was lepto meningeal metastases. My husband googled it and that was brain cancer, and he had four months to live.
‘Quite honestly, I just drained from the top to bottom, and I shook. We were just stunned. So, I threw myself upon the Lord and said, “I can’t deal with this. Please give me something to give me peace in this.”
‘The next morning in my normal read I read this verse from Romans, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
‘I have never known such peace. I knew it was God. I trusted God for if he would heal him or not. He went for more MRIs and found that it was swelling on the brain, and it wasn’t cancer. They put him on steroids, and he’s fine.
‘The Lord brought us through relaxed and at peace which you really wouldn’t expect.’

Hebrews 11.1–6 has kind of shaped my life
In 2022, my dad was diagnosed with cancer.
Whenever I get confused, or my faith seems to be wavering, the passage that I remember is in John 4
I was about 19. Somebody had given me a book about people’s testimonies.
