Samara,
Your message came this morning at a time when I needed to cry. We just found out my 21 year old cousin who is also my godchild has lymphoma. It is devastating. God has used your words this morning to allow me to release the pain I am feeling. He has truly blessed you with a gift. Thank you for sharing it with all of us and allowing God to use you in such a profound way. You and your family continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Blessings to you my friend.
