A student said this very word ("epiphany") to me this week, and I had no idea that epiphany would find a home in my life within a matter of days. One can never anticipate the moment epiphany springs forth in your life. It comes in glimpses and breaks over you in waves until finally you realize it and you can say it. Aha!...or Wow!...or even, Whoa! Who knew that on your way to someday you just might find yourself closer than you were and not even have realized the progress you've made? Hmm....
I know that if you are reading this, you just may be wondering "what the heck is she talking about." (Smile) Never fear, suffice it to say, my moment...your reality...same story. Doesn't really matter what my epiphany is, if you listen to the conversation surrounding the epiphany, you may even find a mirror setting for your own story.
I recently shared with a very good friend that I was feeling God's promise of speaking to me in the area of vision, purpose and called identity. I didn't realize (duh!) that God's wisdom would also pour into areas I was never fully expecting revelation (even though I'd prayed and wished for the very thing that snuck up on me).
Tonight, I rediscovered the start of this blog and didn't even remember setting it up. I had never posted anything and, perhaps, with good reason. With all my love for words, the words never set themselves up for debut until this moment. Then suddenly, the dam breaks and the words gush forward, almost as if of their own volition.
I am on my way somewhere today, and it started well before this blog. In fact, only because I'm beginning to articulate the journey's path in this forum can I see the progress I'm making and the detours I've taken. Whatever God allows me to unfold, I'm sure I'll be given strength by the Same to do with it what God wills.
Thank you for the journey, God. May I prove a worthy traveling companion.
Grace & Mercy For Me. Amen.
