About this listen

Season 2 - Encouragement, Support, and Hope for Cancer Patients Season 1 - How to Live from the Inside Out Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with cancer? Are you feeling worried, scared, and uncertain about the future? Do you need encouragement, support and hope as you navigate this unexpected journey? If so, I wholeheartedly understand, and I am grateful you are here. In this podcast you will learn scripture and principles to put into practice to help you keep your eyes, ears and mind focused on Jesus so that you will experience more peace within through your cancer journey. My name is Shawn Elizabeth George. I am a wife, mother of three, dog mom to Georgia, and a follower of Jesus. In 2017, I was diagnosed with a rare salivary gland cancer, adenoid cystic carcinoma, when a tumor was found in my nasal cavity, growing into the roof of my mouth. From diagnosis and surgery through treatments with proton beam radiation and low-dose chemotherapy, I journaled about what I learned about God through my experience. Why? Because I believed that God uses all things for good, and if I made it through, I wanted to support others facing cancer, along with their families and friends, by sharing what I learned to encourage them. Throughout my cancer journey, using God’s Word as my cornerstone was transformational. I am grateful to be here to share what I have learned so that you can apply His Word through your journey as well and in turn be encouraged, feel supported and have hope. Whether you follow Jesus or not, please know you are welcome here and are invited you to join me to… Pause. Breathe. Pray.™ Let’s invite God into your cancer journey and embrace His Word as our guide to care for your mind, body, and soul. Sit back, relax, and listen. Let’s take a step of faith together on this transformational, healing journey. With love, care and hope, Shawn www.shawnelizabethgeorge.comCopyright 2024 All rights reserved.

  • S2 E57 | A Blessing for the Broken
    Jun 2 2025

    On today’s episode of Pause. Breathe. Pray.™, I will share lyrics to a song that blessed me in a broken moment that I pray bless you too.

    Summary - Reflection and Application

    1. Be transparent with God about where you are feeling broken.
    2. Listen, read and absorb the truth woven into these lyrics.

    Lyrics of the Week ⁠

    The pages of history, they tell me it's true

    That it's never the perfect

    It's always the ones with the scars that You use

    Oh, it's the rebels and the prodigals

    It's the humble and the weak

    All the misfit heroes You chose

    Tell me there's hope for sinners like me

    Now I'm just a beggar in the presence of a King

    I wish I could bring so much more

    But if it's true, You use broken things

    Then here I am Lord, I'm all Yours

    -Broken Things by Matthew West
