I know it has been quite a while since I have posted, ahem, but I wanted to share about my precious friend, Sara to my tiny little corner of the blogosphere. I met Sara back in 1996 at Lipscomb University. We were in the same club (which she was the chaplain of for two years I believe) and we lived in the same dorm for a while as well. Sara even served in our wedding in December of 2000. We go to church with the Walker family, too. As I told Sara the other week, because of the trials that she is enduring at the present time, hundreds and thousands of people are able to see what a woman of faith and child of God that she is - and has been since I met her 14 years ago. Her faith and trust remain constant - God is just using precious, quiet Sara to live her faith "out loud" so that we may be all encouraged.
To condense her story, she gave birth to Anna Elizabeth in December 2010, who was stillborn. In January she began having some pains and just recently was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer that has spread to her liver. She begins chemotherapy next week. You can read about her full story at her Caring Bridge site that was launched just today. Please visit her, sign in her guestbook and encourage her and add her and her precious family to your prayer list.
God is using Sara mightily, and can't wait to witness His miracles to heal her. Please join me in praying for my sweet friend and sister in Christ, Sara, her husband Brian, and her two sons, Camden (5) and Scott (3).
"Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think." Eph 3:30
