What a wonderful blog and a reminder that during our darkest hours we are not alone.

I'm A Survivor

I am so loved by so many who pray for me on a daily basis. COHEN’S PRAYER WARRIORS are amazing and we love you and thank you all. Please keep them coming as there are 18 more days until my second cranial-surgery. 18 more days of prayer.  I am so blessed to be surrounded by unwavering faith and hope and a belief that there is a purpose….a reason for my struggles. If HE brings you to it HE will lead you through it. Our place is not to ask why this is happening, again. Ours is to say OK Lord, I’m yours…lead on. These mountains are but opportunities to achieve and reach greater heights for HIM. Everyone says I am here to do great things…So, I hope my story helps others who are struggling and reminds them to keep the faith and keep praying.
