Have you ever wished you could change someone or a situation? I’m sure you have. I know I have, and I know how much it has stressed me out trying to. It took me a long time to realize that it will never work that way. I learned to accept the situation for what it was and realized that the only way I could be at peace with it was to change my reaction. That was the only thing I actually had control over.
Letting go is not an easy thing to do, especially when it involves someone you love so much. Eventually you finally realize that your predicament is not going to change, the only thing you can do is accept it for what is and move on. That may mean learning to live happily without the change you desired, or be willing to change your entire direction as you move forward. Either way, it is not easy. It takes willpower, strength, determination, acceptance, patience, understanding, and an openmind to new possibilities. Most importantly, it takes faith, belief, and trust in God, and an unwaivering love of yourself knowing that God loves you enough and has your back. He knows what you need, and He has a plan to get you there. Trust in His timing, not your own.
“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.” ~ Matthew 7:3-5

We are a mother and daughter team following God's lead to inspire others. The inspiration for all of our work began in 1980. My mother suffered from a nervous breakdown after suffering for five years before she experienced a miraculous healing where God breathed life back into her and did what the doctors couldn't. Since 1980, it has been our goal to tell her story and share her testimony; however, things always seemed to get in the way. Fast forward 35 years forward and God began giving us signs that now was the time. Both of us had received signs from God over the years, and in 2014 it was apparent that it was time to finally move forward with our writing journey. I started documenting my signs from God, and then one day after praying to God I heard this relentless voice urging me to put a post on Facebook asking others for their signs from God and their loved ones. This was way out of my comfort zone, but I listened to that voice, and could not believe the outcome. The stories started flowing in so fast I couldn't keep up with them. It was apparent this was a God-driven task, and the outcome was amazing. I had never written a book before, but God led me every step of the way until it was published. Signs come in many different forms, and this book captures many of them from pennies, to feathers, to dreams, dream visits, and even spiritual encounters. It will leave you wanting to hear more, and we have so much more to tell! This book includes my mother's testimony of her miraculous healing, and it is now our goal to depict those five agonizing years of her life into a biography. You will be able to relive with us that horrific ordeal through the eyes of the mother who was trapped in her own body, and the daughter watching her once loving mother, now in a catatonic state-of-mind during a very vulnerable age when she needed her mother the most. This has been the driving force behind our writing journey and all of the inspirational messages we wish to share with others that may be struggling or needing to recognize their own signs from God.
