I love this picture with all it's vibrant colors and the presence of the sun, moon, stars and a bolt of lightening right in the middle of the picture to capture your attention. A powerful presentation for sure.
The bolt of lightening that hit me in the past few weeks was a virus, a computer virus. I had never experienced that before, and it was a little unnerving to say the least. I lost most of my photos, but my documents and chapters for my first book "Waiting to Die, Wanting to Live" was saved on that wonderful thing called a flash drive. I had a vision at first of losing everything, and what would I do?
So the thought of having to redo everything I had worked on in the past 2 years made me pause and consider what is the worst thing that could happen? I would have to rewrite my book and renew my vision. A little overwhelming for sure. But I hadn't lost anything in the way of what I have gained in the past several years.
What have I learned? I have learned to trust more, to be obedient to God's Word and my own vision. To never give up or in and that everyday can be a redo,and a redo is a gift the should never be put to the side or allowed to fade away. It is easy to just let things go, and find an excuse to not complete the task, but in the end it is we who lose out on all the possibilities that are afforded us.
So if need be reclaim your dream, live your vision and complete your purpose.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it. Amelia Earhart
So keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen just as He told me. (Acts 27:25)
Gerri, you are an inspiration, an angel sent to remind us of our true calling and purpose. Wow! You have mastered your craft my dear friend, of writing and of living life to it's fullest. Thank you for saying all that needs to be said in few but poignant words. Beautiful and just what I needed to read. xoxo Jen
