            Several weeks ago, a friend of mine sent me this video, and I was very touched by it. A 37 year old mother of two young children, Rachel Barkey, speaks about her faith as she is in the last few weeks of fighting breast cancer. As she speaks, she knows she only has weeks to live, but she is determined that cancer will not define her. Only her relationship with Jesus.

            Her faith and courage as she faced death is incredibly inspiring! It is a long video, almost an hour, but I promise it is worth your time. So make time to watch it, and don’t forget your Kleenex. We can all learn from her faith in the midst of suffering. She passed away July 2, 2009, but is still speaking and inspiring thousands through this video. Let her speak to you and inspire you today, then pass it on. This kind of faith and hope deserves attention.
