Flowers in the Storm

my loud whispers of hopeAugust 11, 2018August 11, 2018Uncategorized

The myth is that storms have to do with punishment.

That they are God’s response to sin or

His disappointment in us as His children.

May I suggest that it is actually the opposite.

It is the confirmation that

we are flowers planted by God

and He desires us to grow.

No matter how painful or inconvenient,

storms are necessary for the flower’s beauty.

To the beautiful struggle

of necessary storms in our lives.

Listen

and don’t

be afraid to grow.

— Kirk Franklin

I share my story openly and honestly to educate others and increase the awareness of mental illness, reduce stigma, prevent suicide, to inspire, give hope and let God's love shine through me and touch you. I finished writing, proofreading and editing my memoir in January of 2019. I am in the process of sending my manuscript to agents and publishers that accept unsolicited maunscripts. I pray my words will turn into a book that will inspire and spark joy and hope in the lives of many. Recovery and healing are possible. I am living proof. "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." ~Maya Angelou View all posts by my loud whispers of hope
