Everyone has a friend or loved one who has battled cancer or is currently on a

Sprinkles of Love, Hope

Enjoy a divine new chapter & season for SONflower Gal

Whether whispered in the quiet of a

solitary room or shared aloud in a

gathering of kindred spirits, prayer

bridges the gap between the earthly and

the Divine. It's a moment of connection,

a sanctuary in which we lay bare our

deepest fears and highest hopes.

There is profound power in the practice

of prayer. It has transformed lives,

brought forth miracles, fostered joy,

calmed spirits, alleviated anxiety,

facilitated healing, and renewed

strength, hope, love, and kindness.

season of her

blessed life.

that she is never alone.

As days turn into nights, and nights into

days, she continues her sacred practice,

finding strength in the rituals and

beliefs that ground her. The simple act

of lighting a candle, the soft murmur of

her voice in prayer, and the gentle

touch of her hands clasped together—

all these become symbols of her

enduring spirit and unwavering faith..

Prayer weaves a tapestry of hope, love,

and resilience, illuminating the path

toward a more compassionate and

harmonious world.

Prayer can be offered anywhere and at

any time. It unites people through a

Story of Hope

Jeremiah 29:11

Tammy Sullivan

I have been fortunate to meet many amazing gals of

all ages through SONflower Gal. Occasionally, you

encounter someone truly special—an Angel who

brightens the room with God’s warmth and love.

Tammy is one of those graceful Angels,

radiating light and leaving you in awe of her

joy and steadfast faith in the Lord . . . as she

openly shared her cancer journey, bringing

forth a powerful story of hope.

Cancer Survivor A Light In The Darkness, Kindred Spirit

We are all truly blessed by the presence of incredible women of faith in our lives.

Some of these remarkable individuals enter our world like graceful angels,

bringing forth delicate petals of love precisely when we need them most.

I am a survivor, and my name is

Tammy Sullivan. I began battling cancer

back in the early 1990's, and here I am

today, at 65 living my best life in Christ.

Her Story of Hope

I view cancer in an odd way at times. Some say I'm just

a goof. Yet when I think if I had not had my diagnosis, I

would not have received His blessing of saying thank

you to my long-ago friend. What's amazing is we

picked up right where we left off since leaving high

school. Each time I travel back to my hometown, she

and I have lunch or dinner and chat the hours away as

if we never left the high school cafeteria! And yes, we

go home to our husbands, instead of our parents, with

them asking " Say, where have you been?"

Blessings, Tammy Sullivan

I've often wondered why cancer chose me. As I lived

each day the very best I could. I realized it was He, that

chose me, not cancer. The Lord was blessing me with

hopes and dreams I had-had for many-many years

and opportunities were about to happen.

God is good-all the time, and it is, in His time!

I have many favorite bible verses and Jerimiah 29:11,

is one I ponder and praise God for often.

“For I have great plans for you, says the Lord!"

He does have great plans for me, and He has great

plans for you as well. As I think back on all the

wonderful people God placed within my journey, I'm

reminded daily of this encouraging verse. I am blessed

with His breath of life, and I thank the Lord for the

special folks I hold so dear in my heart.

One such girl is from my 8th grade class. As I learned to

slow down and enjoy each day, she popped in my mind

one afternoon during treatment. I wondered how she

had made out regarding life. Was she still in our

hometown, had she moved, married, children? Gosh I

wanted to know everything. Little did I know, she too,

had been affected by breast cancer. I found her name

on a social media post announcing a gathering of

cancer survivors. In responding to this post, it indeed

was my childhood friend I remembered so well. She

was always so very kind to me and now, God had

provided the opportunity to simply say thank you.

So when I say to you, I'm so thankful to be a part of

such amazing survivors, I repeat the words from

Jerimiah 29:11 “For I have great plans for you, says

the Lord!" . . . His plans, His timing, Amazing

Thank you sisters and brothers, for being a part of my

journey. By faith I know He has great plans for you too.

Perhaps there is someone from long ago you would

like to thank God for their presence in your life,

however brief it may have been.

“Please get your "girls" checked!”

His drops of Grace . . . seeds planted never seize.

“Right now I have the blessing of going with

my mom. It always brings me comfort.”

Go with a

friend or loved

one to get a

mammogram.

Having a cherished

friend by your side

can provide both

comfort & happiness.

T o d a y

I w i l l

Keep in mind that taking care of your

health not only benefits you but also

highlights the importance of self-care

for those around you. Early detection is

crucial, and with a loving gal by your side,

a routine check-up can turn into a

cherished bonding experience.

Share stories or enjoy a few

laughs while you wait, as that

familiar face can bring peace

and calm to your spirit.

The prayers are designed to support the

person reciting them. If you are praying for

someone else, just substitute the word 'I' or any

relevant terms with their name.

The seven prayers encompass:

Anxiety, Caregiver, Fear, Healing, Hope,

Gratitude and LOVE

There are moments when we find it difficult to

express the right words for our prayers.

The following pages present seven heartfelt prayers,

carefully crafted to assist you in praying for

yourself, a loved one, a friend, or anyone

who has requested prayer during any stage of life.

snares and deceptions of the enemy. Help me to

remember that no weapon formed against me shall

Your loving arms. Help me to trust in Your power and

goodness, and to find peace in the knowledge that

You are my refuge and fortress.

open my eyes to always be aware of your presence

of challenge and uncertainty. From the warmth and

and words, spreading positivity and light wherever I go.

love, kindness and compassion.

With gratitude and humility I embrace each blessed day.

faith, and a heart brimming with joy and happiness.

care for myself, knowing that my well-being is just as

Still Waters

Crawford

Leanna Crawford is an up-and-

coming Christian singer-songwriter

known for her heartfelt lyrics and

captivating voice. Serving up a balm

for anxiety, Leanna modernizes a

familiar passage of Scripture on her

new single and debut album:

Still Waters (Psalm 23)

Leanna

Listen >

However, God has of way of bringing us what we need at

just the right moment. On the very day I was questioning

Him, He introduced me to a beautiful song by a talented

artist Leanna Crawford called ‘Still Waters (Psalm 23)’.

A beautiful soothing song to help calm anxiety.

Recently, my anxiety reached a point where I found it

difficult to leave my home or fully embrace the

wonderful blessings life has to offer. I cherish socializing

and love visiting my favorite spots. I couldn't help but

question why this was happening to me. In my despair,

I thought, “Is this how my life will always be?”

This song has become an integral part of my daily

prayers and I sing it to myself during moments of anxiety.

Hope

I truly hope this song brings you comfort

as you pray thru worrisome seasons in

your life as you seek God’s solace.

(Psalm23)
