Still I Rise Podcast
"Sea of Hope" by Elizabeth Diaz
From Elizabeth's Story: "Life happens, friendships come and go, things change after a life altering experience, but I knew God did not abandon me. My family began praying the rosary. Things changed so much for me. I became calmer and very much at ease. My son was my number one driving force. I knew he needed me, but I needed him more. As exhausted as I was staying afloat, I had no choice but to continue to swim to overcome these high waters. God stilled the waves and I swam until the sea became calm again.
My faith has taught me to embrace what I cannot change and make them opportunities that give hope to others and build resilience. Some waves are bigger than others to overcome, but those are the ones that impact on our lives and leave imprints in the sand."
