God’s Sovereignty over Cancer Survival Statistics

Beautiful and vibrant 10 year old Linnea was experiencing what everyone thought were growing pains. Turned out to be stage 4 cancer: Metastatic Ewing Sarcoma. This was a shock to all, except God who was already at work coordinating plans for what was to unfold: pain relief, provision, perfect location for treatment, expedited tumor response, and best of all… Linnea’s treatment was a success and (at time of this recording) is now 5 years treatment being cared for annually at the Survivor Clinic at Phoenix Children’s hospital! Praise the Lord!

In your darkest valley, God stands by your side, sharing in your sorrow. Throughout each storm, you’ll witness the unmistakable presence of the divine—before, during, and after. Lara recounts poignant moments and profound insights that provided inexplicable comfort, guidance, and peace.

Despite the abyss of grief, God’s faithfulness prevails, sustaining Lara and her family. As you engage with this series, your faith will be fortified, your wisdom broadened, and your capacity for compassion deepened, empowering you to support others on similar journeys. Lara is a beacon of joy, generosity, and boundless enthusiasm for life’s adventures, with an unwavering dedication to her beautiful family. I can’t wait for you to meet her, confident that this video will alleviate any fears you may harbor, allowing you to relinquish control and embrace the ever present help in time of trouble, from our mighty counselor and comforter. Welcome to this 3-part conversation about how God’s compassionate presence was experienced during three very traumatic events for Lara and her family.

In the previous part 1 video, Lara shares a firehose amount of wisdom in this very candid discussion about the difficulty of her baby going to Heaven early due to SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.) His oldest brother Josiah, who shared the same birthday, was the first to discover him.

The storms didn’t end there. She was ready and able to stand strong and rest in her faith, no matter where the currents were leading.

Part 3: Josiah, after wrestling with depression, miraculously reconnected with Jesus finding joy and peace… only to be struck by a car… reuniting with his baby brother Jeremiah in Heaven.
