As Jen continues her cancer treatment, she reflects on how God’s faithfulness has carried her through moments that felt hopeless. Instead of an instant miracle, God is doing a deeper work in her — shaping her testimony, refining her purpose, and drawing her closer to His heart.
This devotional post is written from the heart, blending Jen Tan’s personal cancer journey.

John 5:5-6 "One who was there had been invalid for 38 years. When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him. “Do you want to get well?”
“In the quietest moments of my cancer journey, these verses have become my anchor. They remind me that no matter how hopeless a situation may seem, or how trapped I feel by my physical limitations, God ministers to our deepest needs. I have come to sense clearly that God has a special work for me to do—not just in spite of my condition, but perhaps even because of it.
The Depth of True Healing
I’ve often reflected on what would happen if God performed an instant physical miracle. I might simply return to my old self—enjoying life on earth, living comfortably, and ignoring God once again. But my journey of healing now involves something much deeper: Continuity. It is about sharing my testimony and living out a faith that creates lasting impact beyond short-term physical gains.
Finding Purpose in the Journey
Reading the book of John has been eye-opening. It has revealed my purpose and shown me how to use my journey to encourage others in uncertain times.
Sufficient Grace
His faithfulness is something I feel unworthy of, yet I receive it with a grateful and open heart.
