Cancer's Unexpected Blessings

If you have kept up with my blog for a while you will have read sporatically about people who really know what it is like to suffer.

Melissa Bernard a 34 year old mother of 4 (the youngest being 3) who lost her 8 month battle with cancer last week.

Baby Isaac - a 5 month old baby with HLHS ( a defective heart condition) who has fought off death 3 times, but is coming once again to the end of what doctors can do for him.

Dan Knudsen - an 18 year old 6 ft good looking athlete who loved the Lord, broke his neck on a missions trip this spring and is now a complete parapalegic with many other issues extending from the paralysis.

And there are many others...

As my heart has broken and ached and my eyes have shed many tears for these families, an article in Christianity Today had a great article on Tony Snow (White House Press Secretary that is currently battling cancer) that really put all these things in perspective for me.

When you enter the Valley of the Shadow of Death, things change.
