Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Matthew 6:33: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and al these things shall be added to you.” John 11:35: “Jesus wept.” Resources for You Grief 2 Great Day Podcast with Stef Cabaniss Grief Resources include a Grief Survival Workshop, Loss of Life Coaching, and a support program to help you navigate grief alongside others who understand the devastation and have a common goal for healing. Facebook Grief Group community Stefanie Cabaniss knew in those agonizing moments watching her friend dying that the story must be told. As with the Scriptural account of Noah, Abraham, and Moses, this recollection conveys a realistic version of that manner of ‘crazy’ faith. Dying to be Healed is not a story set in a backdrop of ages past. It is a contemporary, true, bittersweet, and altogether real-life narrative of the final months of the earthly existence of Stefanie’s best friend, Monica. Monica battled the ravages of stage-four Melanoma but came to strongly and immovably believe that she had been miraculously healed by the power of the Great Physician. This is a story of that unshakeable faith in the midst of rampant physical contradiction.
