Marquita Lister's interview is a Blessing

2011-02-04T11:19:00.001-08:00

I recently heard a wonderful interview conducted by MetroConnection
with opera star, Marquita Lister.
(Click Here to Listen | Click Here to Read the Transcript)

Although I heard Ms. Lister via the radio, her beautiful soul
just radiated throughout. When you see the picture on her
Web site, it confirms her outer beauty as well.
http://www.marquitalister.com/Bio_English.htm

In the interview, she gave a powerful testimony of how
she is overcoming a rare disease that I am also blessed to
have, called "Polymyositis." I've written in the past how
this muscle disorder has blessed me and just listening
to Marquita, I'm sure she's already blessed others by
showing how God can work in one's life to overcome
illness.

Be sure to support this wonderful soprano. Buy
her music and donate to her the scholarship she
supports. I plan to do both:

Deanna Favre: Inspirational Story on Good Morning America

2010-10-21T20:47:00.000-07:00

When I watched the morning news today (Oct. 21, 2010), I was really blessed to see a good representative for Christ, breast cancer survivor, Deanna Favre. Deanna is the wife of NFL quarterback, Brett Favre. She was on Good Morning America to promote a book she co-wrote with a pastor called, The Cure for the Chronic Life: Overcoming the Hopelessness That Holds You Back.

When asked how she copes with difficulties in her life, including recent allegations about her husband’s misconduct, Deanna replied that she keeps a passage of Scripture on her fridge, Isaiah 41:10-13

Isaiah 41:10-13 (New International Version)

¹⁰ So do not fear, for I am with you;
       do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
       I will strengthen you and help you;
       I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

¹¹ "All who rage against you
       will surely be ashamed and disgraced;
       those who oppose you
       will be as nothing and perish.

¹² Though you search for your enemies,
       you will not find them.
       Those who wage war against you
       will be as nothing at all.

¹³ For I am the LORD, your God,
       who takes hold of your right hand
       and says to you, Do not fear;
       I will help you.

Breast Cancer Awareness Stories: The NFL, Chris Cooley, Ralph Lauren & Deanna Favre

2010-10-17T21:55:00.000-07:00

Deanna Favre and her husband also oversee their Favre 4 Hope Foundation for disadvantaged and disabled children in Mississippi and Wisconsin and the foundation provides financial aid for breast cancer patients.

http://www.favre4hope.com/
------------------------------------
On Monday, October 18, 2010, Good Morning American ran a story on Ralph Lauren's Pink Pony Campaign, which helps cancer patients in New York City, who may not have the financial means for health care.

Here's a link: Ralph Lauren Center
----------------------------------------

This season the National Football League (NFL) in the U.S. launched a campaign to coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October.

During the month of October, the color pink (the breast cancer awareness color) can been seen in the uniforms of NFL players and throughout the playing field.

Chris Cooley, a player with Washington, D.C.'s football team, has a personal connection to this campaign as his mother is a breast cancer survivor as is the wife of the team's owner, Daniel Snyder, Mrs. Tanya Snyder.

Here's a link to Cooley's appearance on the Today Show:
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/early-lead/2010/10/chris_cooley_tanya_snyder_roge.html

NBC Nightly News also ran a story about Cooley as part of their "Making a Difference" segment:

My Favorite Quotes from the Chilean Miners

2010-10-14T07:06:00.000-07:00

Mario Sepulveda:

"I buried 40 years of my life down there, and I'm going to live a lot longer to be a new person."

"I think I have learned a lot of wonderful lessons about taking the good path in life," he said. "For those of you able to call your wives or your husbands, do so."

“I have been with God and with the devil. I seized the hand of God, it was the best hand. I always knew God would get us out of there.”

Mario Gomez :

"Patience and faith. God is great and the help of my God is going to make it possible to leave this mine alive."

Chilean President Pinera:

"What ended up as a real blessing from God started as a possible tragedy. But the unity, the faith, the compromise, the honesty, the solidarity of the Chileans in those 69 days makes us very proud."
