Read <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em> through every treatment, every challenge, every tear, and every triumph, and be reminded that God\u2019s love is sufficient to cover any diagnosis.\u201d<br \/>\n\u2014Pat Williams, Senior Vice President of the Orlando Magic, author, speaker, cancer survivor<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I never asked for the label of Common Trauma Expert; however, God knew from the beginning that He would provide a powerful purpose through my pain. This is why I appreciate <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em>. Mary J. Nelson offers cancer patients, their families, and frankly any of us who experience adversity, a unique form of hope and encouragement. Her transparent conversations with God, shared in a fresh style of back and forth dialogue between she and our adoring Father, will inspire you. If you want to know what God really thinks about this dreaded illness and those struck by its insidious tentacles, you must read <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em>\u2014the truth may surprise you.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2014Anita Agers Brooks, Inspirational Business\/Life Coach, International Speaker, Award-Winning Author of <em>Getting Through What You Can&#8217;t Get Over<\/em> and Other Published Titles<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMary Nelson\u2019s <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em> is exceptional! It is a beautiful book of prayer that offers biblical hope, comfort, and strength to anyone battling cancer. Mary, a survivor herself, is dedicated to helping others who find themselves in the midst of this journey. . . . <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em> will restore your trust and faith in Jehovah-Rapha, the God who heals. Be encouraged and uplifted as you enter into the loving presence of the Ultimate Comforter. Then may you say. . .\u2018It is well with my soul.\u2019 \u201d<br \/>\n\u2014Sue Johnson, Pray for the Cure Prayer Minister, Hosanna! Lutheran Church and 16-Year Breast Cancer Survivor<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mary Nelson speaks from her own experience, and from her experience in praying with many others, when she encourages you to believe that God can bring you healing from cancer. This book is a conversation between God, scripture, and you. When the fatigue, the confusion, and the busyness of dealing with cancer treatment make it difficult to pray, or when cancer challenges your faith, this book will help you put words to your prayers as you seek to connect with God. May this book strengthen your trust in God as He walks with you through\u2014and beyond\u2014your experience of cancer.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2014Carol Peters-Tanksley, M.D., D.Min., OB-Gyn Physician, Ordained Christian Minister, Author of <em>Dr. Carol\u2019s Guide to Women\u2019s Health<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Mary Nelson&#8217;s book, <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em>, we are reminded that when it comes to God, we are never alone. As I experienced my own battle with cancer, I knew I wanted and needed to keep God close. I longed to hear His voice, and I wanted to talk to Him in return. But sometimes it was hard to know how to do that. Fear and doubt would enter my thoughts, creating \u2018static\u2019 on my lifeline to God. <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em> provides the perfect resource for clearing away the \u2018noise\u2019 that keeps us from connecting with the Father. In this beautifully written book, Mary Nelson creates a dialogue with God in every chapter. We receive an intimate message from the Father and also have a guide to the prayers we can share with Him in return. This is an excellent addition to the collection of books written by Mary Nelson. We are all blessed because of Pastor Mary&#8217;s obedience to God&#8217;s call on her life.<br \/>\n\u2014Kris Bowe, Cancer Survivor, Pray for the Cure Participant, and Prayer Minister<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Based on her own life story and her experience ministering to others, Mary has created a beautiful gift for those diagnosed with cancer. She not only guides us on a journey of hope but lifts us above our circumstances through the truths of Scripture and an intimate relationship with God. Many lives will forever be changed through the tender and profound wisdom in this book!&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2014Julia Holtze, Adult Ministries Pastor, Hosanna!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMary Nelson once again has captured the art of bringing God\u2019s promises to life for anyone experiencing cancer or other serious health challenges of any kind. As a three-time cancer survivor (ovarian, kidney, and liver) and Care Pastor of a larger congregation, I cannot say enough about the hope, love, peace, clarity, empowerment and healing the book offers a cancer sufferer, a supportive friend or family member or anyone helping them medically or spiritually. When things in life are out of our control, God Himself can bring a powerful peace, filling us with trust instead of fear. The personalization of His Word and grace successfully turns an unknown future into a journey through every phase of life through His strength.\u201d<br \/>\n\u2014Pat Moe, Care Ministries Pastor, Hosanna! Church, Lakeville, MN<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPastor Mary Nelson writes out of her personal experience, not untested theory or theology. She has boldly \u2018prayed for the cure\u2019 with thousands of brokenhearted and feeble-bodied people dealing with the daunting realities of cancer. Physical healing or not, her writing and ministry produce the greatest fruit of all: fortified faith and healed souls.\u201d<br \/>\n\u2014Ryan Alexander, Lead Pastor of Hosanna! Church, Lakeville, MN<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a surgeon, I see patients daily in various stages of their cancer journey. The shock and despair of a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming. Mary Nelson, in her new book <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em>, provides patients with a biblically-based guide to help them through their journey with cancer. The typical questions patients have such as, \u201cWhy did I get this disease?,\u201d \u201cIs God punishing me?,\u201d and \u201cWhere is God in this illness?\u201d are all beautifully addressed with prayer and scriptures. Patients start their journey with fear and questions but can finish it with hope and a new understanding of God\u2019s love for them after reading through the book. I would recommend <em>Praying for the Cure<\/em> for any believer dealing with cancer or any serious illness or circumstance. The book contains good advice for dealing with life.\u201d<br \/>\n\u2014Theodore Sawchuk M.D., F.A.C.S, Urologic Surgeon, Co-founder Burning Hearts Ministry, Fargo, ND<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMary Nelson wrote her new book straight from Heavenly Father\u2019s Heart. Those who read, declare, and believe the truths in her book will go from misunderstanding and doubt about God&#8217;s love and perfect plans to a place of belief, healing, and restoration. Mary&#8217;s book is not only for those struggling with cancer but also for anyone going through a trial!\u201d<br \/>\n\u2014Mark and Kathy Strandjord, Cofounders of Spirit of Hope Ministries<\/p>\n<p><strong>Buy this book at:<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.com\/1634092015\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0\u25cf\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/praying-for-the-cure-mary-j-nelson\/1123132221\">Barnes &amp; Noble<\/a>\u00a0\u25cf\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barbourbooks.com\/product\/Praying-for-the-Cure,14453.aspx?Tab=Books\">Barbour Publishing<\/a>\u00a0\u25cf\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.christianbook.com\/praying-powerful-prayer-comfort-healing-cancer\/mary-nelson\/9781634092012\/pd\/092010?event=ESRCG\">ChristianBook.com<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/prayingforthecure\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"132\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/?attachment_id=132\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.maryjnelson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/mary-fb.jpg?fit=29%2C28&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"29,28\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"mary-fb\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.maryjnelson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/mary-fb.jpg?fit=29%2C28&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.maryjnelson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/mary-fb.jpg?fit=29%2C28&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-132 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.maryjnelson.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/mary-fb.jpg?resize=29%2C28&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"mary-fb\" width=\"29\" height=\"28\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/prayingforthecure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Like this book on Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Powerful Prayers for Healing from Cancer Praying for the Cure: A Powerful Prayer Guide for Comfort and Healing From Cancer Shiloh Run Press, 2016 Prayer opens worlds of possibilities\u2014but many people still struggle to pray.\u00a0 This book offers solid biblical reasons to talk to God and specific prayer starters to guide you in prayer for [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":119,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-694","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/694","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/119"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=694"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/694\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1061,"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/694\/revisions\/1061"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maryjnelson.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=694"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
