Trust During Adversity Video provided by: TruthMedia films
Canadian hockey legend Paul Henderson expected a routine checkup, since he was in good health. But after a month of tests, he was diagnosed with cancer. He was shocked, but resolved that he would renew his intention to live every day to the fullest.
What was his source of strength and inspiration, and how can you have the same in your own life?

That is so true Joyce! It is also at those times that we are able to see our need for God and the people around us that care about us.
Sometimes it is our darkest times that are also our most enlightening times. It’s when we’re able to see beyond the adversity that we see the real meaning of life.
