The Distance between Then and Now
My last journal entry was in August of 2010. It is now Jan., five months later.
Something very personal brought me to Daily Strength tonight. While here I decided to read my journal. Eight months of growth and strength. And then something clicked, I realized how this was the story of my life. Not just the writing, but the distance between then and now.
How truly greatful I am to have been able to recapture the time in between. So often, I have started things in my life to walk away, with no regard to the distraction that stole my place of value and importance.
As I write this entry tonight I want to Thank God for allowing me the chance to see this part of me that continues to long for change. I have asked myself so many times during these lost days, "WHY???" Why haven't I been able to write. Writing is my only way of expressing the Truth, and seeing the changes that God has done so miracously in my journey.
I look forward to the days that lie ahead. To remember that this is not just for me, but for the lives of those who also seek healing.
