Episode 234 - Seeing Beauty in the Darkest Days with Colleen Chao

How do you live life with the end in mind, especially when you are told your days are numbered? We all know that Scripture calls us to live life through the lens of heaven, but how do we really do that? For Colleen Chao, finding out she had Stage 4 Cancer forced her to think about living the way God called her to in spite of the fact or perhaps because of the fact, that she is dying. Having expected life to go in a much different direction, Colleen has been learning to see the beauty in the most unexpected places like suffering and pain. In this episode, Davey has a raw conversation with Colleen on seeing God's beauty in the darkness of suffering, the transformative power of gratitude, and how the blood of Jesus can keep us from dwelling in our regrets. You don't have to have a life-altering diagnosis to be encouraged by Colleen's story of living life fully when heaven is closer than you anticipated.   Website: http://www.colleenchao.comBook: Hands of a Fiercely Tender God: 31 Days of Hope, Honesty, and Encouragement for the Sufferer https://www.amazon.com/Hands-Fiercely-Tender-God-Encouragement/dp/0802429904/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3LLTTB8E59IIY&keywords=colleen+chao&qid=1656337889&sprefix=colleen+chao%2Caps%2C118&sr=8-1
