Finding Unexpected Blessings in Marriage - Laura Story and Martin Elvington (Part 2)

Laura Elvington is better known as Laura Story and is perhaps best known for her contributions to contemporary Christian music, but behind her songs is a story of pain, struggle, and God’s redemptive touch.
When her husband Martin was diagnosed with a brain tumor just a year and a half into their marriage, their hopes and dreams of a perfect life were shattered. Walking through the frightening journey together, they rediscovered faith, relationship, and God’s inestimable blessings.

Ministered to me deeply.

I really feel Martin was very lucky following his surgery. Yes he has deficits but they could of been much worse. He can still walk, he talks coherently. Laura and Martin have every reason to praise the Lord.

Something they are gracious not to mention is that some "friends" probably transitioned out of their lives due to the changed circumstances.

Someone once told me that handing Kleenex to someone crying conveys “stop crying” and it is to fix our discomfort with their pain. That’s how I understood Jesus-fix comments during my husband’s transplant journey. Not malicious. Just not helpful. And yes Laura - being handed a warm latte expresses a lotta love 🥰

Touching story hitting close to my family. My Mom passed away the summer going into sixth grade. She had a brain tumor as well
