3-Day for the Cure

I just wanted to make this post to bring awareness to the continual need to fund breast cancer research. I'm sure you guys all know someone who has battled or is currently battling breast cancer. Why not help out how you can and financially support breast cancer research? No amount is too small! Someone I know has personally battled and survived breast cancer, and she now does anything she can to help find the cure. Her name is DeLese Range, and she is the mother to one of my friends at Iowa State. She is such a strong, inspirational woman, and she has beaten cancer twice. If you want to read about her incredible story and/or make a financial contribution as she will be doing the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure 60 mile walk again this year then click here. Remember, no amount is too small! Please also join me in sending up some prayers for Mrs. Range as she trains and fundraises for this event.  

We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.  -2 Corinthians 4:7-9

Do not fear, for I am with you, do not be afraid, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.  -Isaiah 41:10

Very truly, I tell you, you will weep and mourn, but the world will rejoice; you will have pain, but your pain will turn into joy.  -John 16:20

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.  -Proberbs 3:5

But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.  -2 Corinthians 12:9-10
