Healing Is A Choice

It has been 1 year and 6 months today since Aaron passed through heaven’s beautiful gates and was embraced by his Heavenly Father. Some days it feels like just yesterday and other days it feels like it’s been years. Today I want to share how Noraa is doing, where I am in my grief journey and how God has called me to share our story.

Noraa is doing amazing! She is such an incredible, smart and active little girl! She is also very independent! I can’t believe she will be 2 years old next month! Her sweet spirit and loving heart has been such a blessing to our family.

My “grief journey” is now leading me to a place of healing and acceptance. I still do not like this journey that I’ve had to endure, but I am learning to be joyful through it. I have to come to a crossroads where I can either embrace God fully and finally allow His healing to take place in my heart or I can choose to remain bitter, sad and resentful about my situation. I am choosing to embrace God and allow His healing to take place. I have come to a point where I’ve had to decide what is the most important relationship in my life… and that relationship is the one between God and I.

I feel that God is calling me to write, not just write a blog, but to write a book. I have felt this so strongly for a very long time, but I have not had the courage, faith or trust to follow through. I am finally ready to be obedient and walk this new journey with God directing my every step.

“When God doesn’t give you that ‘miracle’ you want, you need to become a miracle for others. When you serve someone else, your heart gets healed as well.”

I am also going through a very real spiritual battle, so I am asking for prayer. Since I have made this decision to step up and step out for God, I have been experiencing the enemy’s attack. Please pray for strength, endurance and courage to keep trusting God and follow through with His plan for my life.
