We all see life through our own lenses, don’t we? Everything we see is filtered through our personal experiences, and that’s true of what we see in the Bible too. Sometimes I sit down to read in the morning and God shows me a little snippet of something meaningful. That happened today. I always stop and write it down in a journal because the holes in my 61-year-old colander-of-a-brain are getting bigger all the time and I won’t remember it in three minutes.
Karen, I have to share with you that I think you are so strong. You have done so much to regain a normalcy to you inner self. God does give us trials to strengthen and pull us closer to him. You have done what a lot of people find hard to do if no impossible, share something that scares you and makes you feel vulnerable. Different maybe broken. Your have a way of sharing your story that makes others comfortable. You are doing a good thing writing down all your trials, failures and triumphs. I know God is using your writing not only for you but also for your readers. You are strong, kind and a good writer. Next year you will look back and see how far your journey has taken you towards healing.
You write so eloquently. I would love to sit down and share testimonies sometime. We have a lot in common. The struggles with PTSD and all that comes with it... as well as, the similarities in beliefs.

Thank you, Diana, for your very kind and encouraging words. I appreciate them—and you!
