“The MRI shows you have a brain tumor.”
When you are 27 years old, a wife and mother of two little girls under the age of 4, that kind of news is unimaginable.
To think that 7 months later you would be standing a platform in front of a 1,000 people sharing your story of recovery and singing a song about how hardships can be the source of blessings, has God’s fingerprints all over it.
Hear Amber MacNeil’s story and song by going to:

Ephesians 1:3 says that we have been “blessed…with every spiritual blessing in Christ.” Those “blessings” include “mercy” and “healing” in hardships. The chorus to the song Amber sang is written below:
“Blessings” by Laura Story
“What if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
When darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home…”
