I know it has deeply challenged me in so many areas of my life as a sinner and on my journey with the Lord --hence the reason I am sharing this on my blog. I don't usually talk openly about my faith in our Saviour Jesus Christ, but it is something that I know that I need to do more of. I also know that I need to "serve" more and "serve with joy"!
Thanks to Desiring God and Josh Harris for posting this story of faith in Christ alone.
After four and a half years of vigilantly fighting breast cancer, Rachel Barkey, a 37-year-old wife and mother of two was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
Rachel's story is not unlike what thousands of women around the world have experienced. A diagnosis that changes a woman's life and inevitably takes from her what we consider to be most precious.
But for Rachel the essence of life is found in her relationship with God through Jesus. And that's why Rachel is convinced that death is not dying.
Watch Rachel share her story of trusting God in the face of death. "Cancer does not define me," she says. "Neither does being a wife or a mother. All these things are part of who I am but they do not define me. What defines me is my relationship with Jesus."
