Traveling the road alone is not an easy task. In fact, it’s quite lonely. The road ahead is full of uncertainty, twists and turns, fog, and lots of pot holes. You tend to second doubt yourself all the time. Did I make the right decision? Am I crazy? What was I thinking?
I went from having that hug I needed, to having no one to hug. Someone to talk to, to echos in an empty house. I never really lived alone before and this was definitely taking its toll on me.
What did I do? Well, I dove into my church and made some of my own friends. I started holding more events for Young Living and built those relationships up even more as well. I then realized that some of those puzzle pieces were fitting into place and I was able to realize why God brought Young Living into my life. I met so many amazing friends. Friends which have and still help get me through the mud puddles of life. He knew what He was doing and I am so grateful for these relationships. In fact the woman behind this lens, is one of those ladies that I was able to share my complete story with and has inspired me to document my story.
You see, when we are in the moment, the road ahead doesn’t always show itself but we have to continue to move forward in faith and hope knowing that God’s light is just around the corner. When we look back, the path seems much clearer as those puzzle pieces have come together. It’s like you dropped the bread crumbs that you can look back on. Though you have no idea where you will be dropping the next piece of bread until you get there.
I realized that I was never really alone because I had God with me the whole time. Our relationship keeps growing stronger and stronger and I am so thankful for His presence. He has given me many signs throughout this time in my life. Be open to recognizing the signs He gives you as they come in many different forms. I’ll share some of those I received in my next blog….
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. ~ Proverbs 3:5-6
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.
