The Worst Lies We Tell… Are to Ourselves
The Worst Lies We Tell… Are to Ourselves As Christians, we know lying is a sin. The worst lies I’ve ever encountered aren’t the ones told to me—it’s the ones people tell themselves. For every lie spoken aloud, there are countless more we tell ourselves.

There's something I need to share—a hard truth about cancer treatments that many people don’t talk about. No matter what treatment path you choose, whether conventional or healthier options, there is no definitive cure for cancer.
Soulmates Help us Grow
It takes courage to allow someone to be open with you about opportunities for you to grow. What changes do they see that need to be made for your life to improve? Are you stuck in old habits, addictions, or procrastination? Will you allow someone to point that out? It takes trust. So make sure this is someone trustworthy—check their life, success, integrity, values, and moral compass.
Misdiagnosed
I was misdiagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in 2013. It would have been catastrophic to my health if I had done the recommended chemotherapy. My second opinion revealed that it was not cancer at all, but double pneumonia. Over 100,000 people are misdiagnosed with cancer every year and that is too many.
Double Trouble
In August 2008, I began dating a man I had known since high school, and we married in December 2010. It wasn’t long before I realized I was in serious trouble. He was an alcoholic, violent, and explosive. At the same time, I was battling stage 4 cancer, undergoing surgeries and radiation. I felt trapped in the marriage, unable to leave because he was my caregiver. The abuse I endured.
Months to Live
There’s an understandable fear about how men might view dating a woman who’s faced breast cancer twice. Is there a very real possibility of being burdened with her in the future? These concerns are real and deserve empathy. I remember how overwhelming it felt when I was single, trying to share this sensitive part of my life.
Cancer: Coping With Fear
Getting a cancer diagnosis can trigger intense fear. Waiting for results is traumatic, especially when you hear those dreaded words, "You have cancer." We immediately crave answers and focus on physical symptoms. We want our blood work, radiology reports, and a treatment plan. We want cancer gone fast!
The Weight of Our Stories
Life can surprise us with pain we never saw coming. We all have our stories—of heartbreak, battles we didn’t choose, and strength we didn’t know existed. Mine is one of many. In 2000, after enduring sexual assault and stalking, I entered the Victims of Crime program, changing my name to "Knight" as a symbol of strength and God's protection. But that was just the surface of what I faced. What came after would challenge everything I thought I knew. Curious? Keep reading, there’s more to this story than meets the eye.
Breathe a Prayer
When you’re not feeling well, it’s easy to feel useless. Praying for others is useful. God gives us our breath of life. Before you sleep, pray to God to dedicate every breath you breathe through the night as prayer for someone who prays for us. Imagine, knowing as you sleep that every breath is a gift for someone else in need.
Chasing Rainbows
There’s something magical about rainbows—how they quietly appear just when you need them most, like a love letter in the heavens from God. To me, they’re a letter of hope, reminding me that happiness awaits. Sometimes, we have to chase that happiness, to seek it out amidst the storm, but it’s always there. Since I was a child they have mesmerized me.

60% HIGHER CANCER INCIDENCE RATE WITHIN 2 MILES According to an independent epidemiological study by Dr. Hal Morgenstern, people living within two miles of the SSFL have a 60% higher cancer incidence rate compared to those living at 5 miles*. This means that the closer you live to the SSFL, the higher the risks of being impacted by contamination. However, there isn’t a giant glass wall keeping the contamination at the two mile point. Generally we recommend living as far from Read More
Embracing Authenticity Self-Acceptance
On my wedding day, I asked my husband if my cancer scared him. His response? “I only regret not being there with you through it all. I want to be with you in your best moments and love you through your hardest.” Those words have stayed with me as I continue to embrace peace, healing, and my true self.
Meeting Brian Regan
During stage four cancer, fear overwhelmed me, but Brian Regan's comedy brought me joy. My brother gave me his DVD, and it became a lifeline through dark times. Miraculously, I later met him. When I shared how his humor helped cancer patients like me, he was surprised and moved, realizing the deep impact his comedy had.
Angelic Support
It is October 15, 2023 and as I sit here this evening, with my wonderful husband, I cannot help but reflect on the past 12 years since my PET scan results in 2011 on this day, 12 years ago that confirmed I was cancer-free. My dream is for everyone diagnosed with cancer to easily heal and for them to hold on to hope no matter what.
Only God Knows Our Time
On our drive to the beach, I’d start panicking and thinking about time. I was powerless over my life, and this terrified me. I cried with my head in my hands and told her, “Sis, it’s not like people say about dying. They say you will be ready and accept it when it's your time, but I am terrified, sis! I am not ready to die!” I cried, and

Worry and anxiety produce nothing good❤️~Shannon Knight
Staying Cancer-free
After healing from stage 4 breast cancer in 2011, I knew that maintaining my overall well-being was key to staying cancer-free. Nurturing not only my physical health but also my mental and spiritual wellness and through intermittent fasting, balanced meals, and mindful daily practices, I’ve built a routine that supports my continued health and peace, free from the fear of cancer's return.
Prayer for Those seeking the divine healing of God,
Lord, I come before you every day for all who need your healing hand and for anyone who calls on me for advice or needs words of encouragement because serious illness has touched their life. I may not have the words or answers they are looking for, but I ask that You give me the patience to listen to them and to guide them in a way that serves them the best. Everyone has a different path. I pray that You show them how to trust themselves if they are afraid, and please give me discernment, so I
Intuition and Will
NO CHEMO FOR ME; A blessing in disguise. I have successfully battled stage 4 cancer since 2006 and when stage 3 turned to stage 4 I was told nothing could be done due to infection. I went to CMN Hospital in San Luis RC MX February 7 2011 without ever undergoing chemotherapy. UCLA gave me months to live and I knew they were right when they said they could not do anything else for me. However, we have the rest of the planet with skilled doctors and Dr. Payan at CMN Hospital saved my life! CMN in San Luis, Rio Colorado, Mexico, just a few blocks across the Yuma, Arizona border, that guided me on this unconventional yet 100% successful path. Thank you CMN HOSPITAL
Heroine’s Journey
If God chose for you to be a leader or warrior for Him, what kind of training do you think that would require? Think about it. Would it be challenging? Would you feel it would take being pushed to the edge, facing trials and adversity, to the point where you begin to discover abilities you never knew existed, gifts from God placed in your soul?
