GRACE OVER GRACE
----------------------------------------------
In the beginning of the year 2020, I had a structured life, a painted piece bright and colorful. as the pandemic began and my life started to change in such confusing ways, I had no answers to my questions. I was feeling lost, lonely in a journey where true colors came to appear, I would try to get up, stand straight then keep going, but in a matter of time I would crash again, making me lose my hope completely. In the middle of this confusion, frustration looking at death face to face. In the darkness, I've sought for light. "SEEK ME AND LIVE" AMOS 5:4 NIV
It was just a seed of faith that started to build up my strong foundation, I restructured my painted piece and started with a white canvas, healing my dark spots, changing my way of thinking, seeing the truth, on this path I began to loose my closest persons, family and friends, as they no longer understood what I stand for. A level of consciousness to what we do daily with life and the gratitude to GOD for bringing me to my higher self. Going into solitude is very scary but it sure makes you stronger, and I want to share my message to the people out there who also went thru solitude during this pandemic.
I've learned that the greatest love is loving yourself, because when you love yourself, you are loving GOD, and therefore my child, you are GODs creation.
