Nothing Can Happen to You Unless God Allows it to Happen – story and lesson

Submit to God’s Will

when a believing woman found out that she had cancer, she began to pray and said, “I thank you, Lord, that you have missed me with cancer.” The woman was asked why she said this strange speech! The woman explained the reason and said:

Nothing can Happen to You Unless God permits.

′′be sure that when God allows something to happen, in the end, surely He is the one who is useful and good. Then the patient continued talking and said: “So nothing can happen to me if God does not examine it first, scrutinize it, and bless it for my benefit.

Nothing Can Happen to You Unless God Allows it to Happen

Everything has to pass through it before it hits me and slaps me. And when this happens, I at least know that God has passed by me to examine it first and give a certificate of approval.

Whether this thing that will happen in my life is rough or easy depends entirely on one thing, and that is whether I can accept it from God’s hand or not. If I see an event as a dark unknown fate that comes upon me to strike me, then everything will be meaningless and hopeless.

But if I know that what is happening is from God, then I will feel at peace because I will realize that it has a noble and blessed purpose, and it will serve my salvation because it comes from God: “So he loved us, that he gave his only Son” (John 3:16). And as St. Paul says: “He who did not spare his only Son, but gave him up for us all, how can he not give us everything with him?” (Romans 8:32)

Prayers for the intentions of cancer patients

O beloved Jesus, our souls are troubled, and our hearts throb with pain and bitterness. O Almighty, we swear by your virgin mother, the Virgin Mary, to give (mention the name) the blessing of healing that we ask of you. We are very confident in your love, mercy, and humility in our Lord and our God.

And you, O holy Virgin, hurry to help us, ask your son for us, do not let torment destroy us, O Mary our mother. Save (mention the name) from this difficult ordeal and grant him to seek healing with your help. O tender Mother, we beg you not to allow our moaning to be prolonged while we promise you, our beloved mother, to serve you and your son forever and ever, Amen. (Google Translate)
