"Shaun"

Last year, at age twenty-five, I was diagnosed with cancer. It was a huge shock. After three months of chemo and an intense surgery, I went through about six months of just not feeling the Holy Spirit whatsoever. It felt like a dark pit. On our way out of the hospital one day, we turned UCB on and I couldn’t tell you what the name of the song was or who the artist was, but there was such an amazing feeling of the presence of God on that drive home. It was so refreshing! After six months of depression, darkness and loneliness, it gave me this boost that there’s hope; it's not over. I’m actually cancer-free now, praise God. Things are going really well, and God’s already been able to use my pain and my sorrow for His glory, and it’s been awesome.
