If you don't read Girl Talk, you're missing out! I'm forever quoting this blog and linking to it because it is a cross-centered, wise online "mentor" for me in this life I life as a daughter of the King. Yesterday, I found this link on Girl Talk to Rachel Barkey's talk she gave called "Death is Not Dying." Rachel is dying of cancer. She's a mom in her thirties who has two little kids and a loving husband. She has between 42-120 days to live and her body is riddled with pain and sickness. And yet, she has profound hope. She shares in this video what it means to Know God, Know Yourself, Know the Gospel, and Know your Purpose. This is one of the neatest testimonies I have ever heard and I want to pass on this link so that many of you might listen to it and be encouraged. If you have dial-up, you could load the audio and listen to it if you aren't able to view the video.

Thanks for this link! I was able to listen to more than half of it this afternoon before things got way too chaotic in my household and I had to pause it. Then I never had the chance to get back to it. I hope to go back and hear the rest tomorrow, possibly during nap time.
ReplyDeleteSo far, I have been humbled and amazed at this lady's testimony! She sure has some good things to say. My heart breaks for her and the family she will be leaving behind. Wow....anyway, I look forward to hearing the rest!
