About this title

From the Back Cover

Living with cancer has changed my life in many ways. The most important change has been a deeper relationship to the Lord Jesus Christ. I have learned to depend on Him and to desire, above all, to be more like Him. Cancer is not my life. It is just a diversion from the real purpose of my life which is to glorify Jesus Christ! But if I can best accomplish this through my cancer, then I accept that--to God be the glory!
