Cancer Screening Guidelines for Each Life Stage
What would Jesus do? Perhaps you’ve heard that phrase and maybe even said it yourself. It’s easy to stamp that question on a situation but much harder to put it into practice. When Jesus walked this Earth, He viewed humanity with eyes of love and compassion, no matter someone’s story. This example can be tough to live up to, but God wants us to try. Each person you see today is His child and calls you to love. Today, be more aware of opportunities to show God’s love to each person you encounter.
Health screenings play the most important role in detecting cancer early. But different screenings are appropriate for various ages. To help you navigate your best tool in cancer prevention, here's our guide for each stage of life.

Have you heard the phrase “history repeats itself?” It refers to a repetition or pattern of similar events. Typically, this phrase is associated with negative events, however there is much good that can come from familiarity. You can learn from the past to equip you in the present. God promises to be by your side and work for your good, even in the tough times. Today, reflect on God’s workings in your life to equip you with courage and hope for the future.
What are you grateful for today? Reflecting on the blessings in your life is scientifically proven to improve your mental and physical health. Gratitude through prayer can also strengthen your connection with God. As people grow from kids to adults, prayers often change from simple thankfulness to a prayer request list. God listens to your prayers regardless but changing your focus to gratitude can help you realize His many blessings. Today, take a moment to reflect on the good things in your life and offer a prayer of thanks to God.

Nobody likes to wait. Most people are impatient. We hate waiting in lines or sitting in traffic. We despise waiting for a text back or for a response to an important request. As human “beings” we always want to be doing something, and waiting is not it. Many times, the person we’re waiting on the most is God. We wait for God to answer our prayers. We wait for Him to bring justice to our unfair situations. We wait for Him to restore the world to its perfect state. We wait and we wait… Perhaps we find ourselves waiting because God doesn’t so much want to change our situation as He wants to change us. He wants to make us more like Him, a loving Father who is patient, slow to anger and full of mercy. Today, if you find yourself anxiously waiting on God, slow down, and let Him give you strength. God is with you… even while you wait.

How Do I Tell My Children and Family I Have Cancer?
What scared you as a child? Were you afraid of the dark? Or maybe the pretend monster under the bed? As you grew older, your childish fears vanished, but they were soon replaced with bigger, adult-sized fears. Fears about your future and your loved ones. Fears about health or financial concerns. There are things to be afraid of in life but the attitude towards that fear should always be the same, no matter how old you are. God says, “trust Me.” Whether your fear is big or small or grounded in fact or fiction, it doesn’t change the one you put your hope in. God is your hope, and He’s big enough for all your fears. Trust Him.

To be dismayed means to be filled with distress and anxiety. So, what is dismaying you today? Most people worry about many of the same things — money, their work, relationships, health and the future. Does any of that sound familiar? Telling someone not to worry is like telling a baby not to cry. It just doesn’t work. But when you pick up that baby and hold it, singing a soft lullaby and soothing its fears, the child will stop it’s crying and find peace. That’s what God wants to do for you. He doesn’t just tell you to stop worrying, He is there with you, no matter what you face. You can go to Him anytime in prayer. You can share with Him all your fears and frustrations. You can experience His presence and allow Him to soothe your spirit the same way a parent soothes their frightened child. Today, take your fears to the One who loves you.

What does being perfect look like to you? Do you imagine someone who’s good looking, in great physical shape, full of confidence and poise? While these things might impress some, they don’t impress God. God’s standard for perfection is quite different from ours. But thankfully, He knows we can never meet this standard on our own. That’s why He gives us grace. God’s grace is perfect because it makes us perfect. In fact, God’s power is best seen when we are weak. When we could do nothing to save ourselves, God stepped in and sent His son, Jesus. He is the reason we have the grace of God. Today, thank God for His amazing grace.
What does courage look like? Do you picture heroic acts on a battlefield or standing up for what you believe in, even when nobody else will stand with you? Do you think you could ever have that kind of courage? Well God wants you to live a courageous life, removed from fear and discouragement. He tells you to be brave, not because of your own might, but because He is with you wherever you go. If you know that the all-powerful God of the universe is by your side, no matter what you may face, then what do you have to be afraid of? You can rise in any situation because God is with you.

What is grace? You hear a lot about it in the Bible, but do you really know what it means? Grace is God’s unmerited favor, granted to you because of His Son, Jesus. The word “unmerited” means you can’t do anything to earn this gift. God doesn’t reward people based on their lists of accomplishments or good deeds. Instead, He offers grace to all, gives power to the weak and never turns away those who come to Him. Today, you can go to God and receive this all-sufficient grace. Experience the power of His grace in your life.

But even with all that technology, you could still end up passing through heavy traffic or construction. Or an unfortunate accident could stop you and you might still be late to your destination. That’s kind of how people approach life, trusting in themselves to get through it, not realizing the hazards ahead. But God says, “Trust in Me.
