within moments

Stumbling across a beautiful story by Liz Delayne while on my quest for a good read, the LORD worked in my life again.

"Within Moments" was a novel overflowing with emotions strong enough to bring tears to my eyes, each moment poignant and fluid. There was something about the link that compelled me to click on it and I couldn't tear my eyes off the screen till I'd read it all. The story spoke to me. Under the obvious theme of romance, it was a great reminder of two people growing in HIS love. Your story of love between Jonathan and Erica and even more so their love for GOD has once again ignited in me that passion and want to get to know and love HIM more. It was yet another affirmation that I'd made the right choice, despite the piercing hurt that came with my decision and the pain that still envelopes.

Like Lillian, my mother is not of my faith, and recently I was shaken hard by her words. We were bonding, mother daughter, over the kitchen table and like any other mum, she was questioning my love life, yet when I told her I wasn't going to rush anything, I simply trusted in HIS hand and believed HE'd give me someone who HE'd make perfect in my eyes, she exploded. She was mad at me for blind faith and it planted a seed of doubt in my mind. But this story has now uprooted that doubt.

God works in wonderful ways and I rejoice in HIS love and affirmations. I'm proud to be his child. Amen.
