Faith & Cystic Fibrosis: Observations & Discussion

Posted Jul 11 2010 12:00am

Joy and Peace I don’t know if you’ve noticed in your cystic fibrosis blog-hopping, but it seems like there is a disproportionately higher number of CFers proclaiming to be born-again Christians than the general population. However, those who are more on the agnostic or atheist end of the spectrum seem to have a disproportionately higher angst in their writing than, say a non-Christian business blogger. I’ve seen all lower-case drivel consisting of nothing but incoherent, disjointed complaining and anger at life in general. Living itself is a miserable prospect to some.

I thought this would be a good topic for the day, since my premise is that most of you will be reading this before or after church, if you’re able, and can get the juices and discussion flowing on what is a normally slow blogging day.

… until it weakens you and then kills you. Sure CF sucks. It’s a raw deal. A bad hand from the deck of genes…

… but that only makes us stronger. Every Christian I know has seen tough times; not a one has been immune from suffering because of their faith, but at least they have a solace. That, I believe is a major part in faith in the CF community, but what do you say? Where does your faith come from?
