"In the quiet moments, love whispers memories that echo in the soul.’
It's 8:05 pm, and soon, a new day will be unfolding before me... I can almost hear the pages of the past three years closing softly, marking the end of a remarkable chapter in my journey...
As I sit here in the darkness of my room, surrounded by moving boxes, I am filled with gratitude as I replay the incredible moments my Heavenly Father orchestrated for me in this charming old house. It is within these walls that I have written two books, launched a podcast, created a blog that has over 109k worldwide views, and touched Jesus’s face through painted canvas…
He has inspired me to achieve things that are beyond my imagination…
It was here in Triune, TN, that He poured His boundless love into my soul… He ignited a once-dimming ember into a radiant flame… He awakened within me a profound sense of curiosity, restoring a childlike excitement for such an extraordinary journey.
However, I must admit my seasoned soul struggles within these earthly constraints. Because I yearn for a world far beyond the stars. It's a world that I crave deeply within the core of my human existence. I yearn to discover more about this faraway place because my beautiful Savior has made it His home.
I'm always in a state of one foot in the past and one in the future. Is there a word to describe such a transitional state of being? When I close my eyes, my mind can travel to a blissful place where my worlds collide. It's where my past, present, and future become my life’s story.
This intimate and soulful state holds the power to reveal clarity and insight, empowering us to move forward and embrace new opportunities and adventures with bold confidence.
It's Him. It is His presence in our lives that motivates us to grow in His amazing wonder and grace. He is such a powerful gift! I appreciate and love Him more each day!!
The memories we weave are our life's tapestry, filled with vibrant colors. But our future is filled with blank pages waiting to be written. Those pages are filled with infinite hope, eternal love, and thoughts of the most captivating soul we could ever encounter!!!
So, as I gather my earthly belongings, and memories, and wipe away my tears, I vow to take my Father's hand and put all my love and trust in Him, for my future rests with the greatest love I have ever known.
And as I dip my pen and press down on a new crisp page, I will continue my quest to share my “Triune” story with anyone with ears to hear…
No matter where life takes me, He has made it clear that "Wherever I go, There He will always be."
It’s Him! It will always be Him!!
"The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid or discouraged". Deuteronomy 31:8
