Dina Deleasa Instagram – A year ago this weekend we had the first @shelivesfearless conferences in NJ. At the time I was diagnosed with Thyroid cancer 3 days prior to the event. I didn’t tell anyone until after the conference. However during my session I talked about relentless faith and how I planned on continually reaching for him in whatever would lie ahead. He had delivered me from a hard season of PPD after emergency birth. I wanted to encourage others who felt themselves being battered by the storm to get their eyes off the wind and rain, and look to Him, because He truly is faithful.
A year later, after multiple surgeries, radiation treatment, three days prior to the conference I was at another doctor’s appointment. Where they stated they felt my cancer had been remediated. The timing was not lost on me. I shared in my talk that through the past couple of months I have committed to taking inventory with God. As I had to take a step back in some places, while he strengthened me in others. I had to face that my biggest hurdle wasn’t cancer but unbelief. I had to chose which perspective I was going to walk with. Those 30% percent, or 5% or 45% chances doctors gave me when explaining all my risk factors. As they continue to measure aspects of my health throughout time. Or will I live in the 100% confidence that He decides my outcome, and will walk me through the valley. And he will also climb with me to any mountaintops. And friends, quite frankly, valley’s aren’t the worst place to be. That is where you dig deeper, discovering the well of peace and strength in the most tangible way.
She Lives Fearless is not about me or any one person, but that God can use anyone and any situation to minister to others. Serving alongside such wonderful people has been a gift. As much as I may teach, what I am able to learn supersedes that. I always say it is an honor to pray for those whom I come in contact with.
I have truly given over my vision board to him. I am being intentional about living in that 100%. What a relief and I am praying others were encouraged to do the same.
