VEHICLE OF COMPASSION -- October 2012

My name is Courtney Ware, a guest blogger this month, and I have known October's Vehicle of Compassion since childhood. We grew up together spiritually in the same church -- Ben Hill United Methodist Church in Atlanta, GA. We attended Sunday school, Confirmation and youth ministry activities until we graduated from high school.  We went our separate ways for college, but we never lost touch.
I had the honor of witnessing her wedding in April 2010; I can still see her gorgeous smile. And she never lost her smile, even after being diagnosed with breast cancer only a few months later. Her smile is the evidence of the JOY that only knowing Jesus Christ can give. She is the epitome of compassion -- a nurse who gives of herself every day to sick children and their families. She loves her job! I have never been more inspired to live and live fully, to love unconditionally, and to trust God without fear than by watching her testimony.

I love her and I'm grateful to call her friend! Please be inspired and encouraged by the story of this month's Vehicle of Compassion, Tiffany Danielle Kinkead (http://www.fromhelltowin.com/p/vehicles-of-compassion.html).
With love,
Courtney Ware
