“We view our anchor story as being a dead end. Instead, view it as an open door. “
I needed this today. Thanks, Michele and Kathi. I haven’t even started publishing blog or book yet, just working on it. I know God wants me to share my story. Yet just this week I was thinking I don’t want to write or speak about cancer and widowhood forever.
Just a few weeks after Jesus welcomed my husband home, I made the statement, “our story was never about cancer, it’s about the faithfulness of God.” Today’s podcast reminds me that once I tell that part of our story, I can use it to springboard to His faithfulness and the other things you talked about on the episode.
