Newfoundland Has a Piece of My Heart Final Chapter

Then a few days later it happened, they returned my email and said they would publish my story. And the greatest thing about it was, they weren’t going to publish it on just any day of the week, but on Thanksgiving weekend. How amazing is that!! I was jumping with joy at the outcome of the whole trip and I was delighted that I had achieved not only one of my goals, but all four. But that’s not all, I have to share more exciting things and update you on my two sons and daughter. Well, my youngest son remembers the day at the edge of the cliff, and he loves the Lord and is married to a beautiful Christian woman and three sweet little girls. My eldest son who helped me move back home, attended church with me and gave his heart to the Lord and he said that my strength in overcoming suicide, has had a great impact on his life and he knew he could overcome his addictions too, and he has. He is married to a good Christian woman as well with four great kids. My sweet daughter also loves the Lord and is married with 2 wonderful kids. But that’s not all, I also am blessed with a sweet step daughter with 4 beautiful children from my marriage. In the last 20 years God has blessed me in abundance beyond what I could ever have imagined. I am glad I didn’t end my life, for if I did, I would have missed out on so much joy. I know now, life is worth living and no matter how traumatic life can be, there is still hope and as you put your trust in God, He will heal your broken heart and put all the pieces back together and make something beautiful out of your life. I have a deep compassion for people, especially those who walk the same road I once did. My goal is to share my story and as you read this, if you have lost all hope, I pray you feel God’s presence right at this moment. May His light shine in your heart and mind, and may you respond to His love, as He calls out your name… Well in closing, Newfoundland is known as the rock and at one time I was living on the rock, but now the Rock of my salvation is Jesus, and I took a piece of the Rock back with me, to share my success story of how He rescued me from death. And now I walk deeper In deepest waters, His living waters, till I am totally immersed in Him. There is no greater way to live!

“A new light of hope now shines bright and has removed all my darkest days, a new faith is built, and I look forward to my future. A new joy has replaced all my tears. A new peace overflows and the war within my soul has seized. The demons that tried to destroy me have vanished.”

You too can experience new hope and a future. God can turn your life around like He did mine. He has created you for something greater than you could ever imagine. I can understand when you walk through a storm it’s hard to see through the fog, but there is a light that shines beyond your darkest days. Your life has purpose and you can overcome your struggles with God by your side.

A lady named Sally who is from Newfoundland, has a blog and when I read her post titled the Unthinkable, my heart was touched and I was inspired to write my story and post it, to share the kindness I received from the beautiful people in Newfoundland. Thank you Sally! I miss it there, but it was wonderful and rewarding to go back when I did. And all I can say is thank you Newfoundlanders, for the sweet memories I have and I pray that through this lockdown that you never lose the spirit of kindness and love you have shared with me and others, I pray God will keep you all safe and healthy and I also pray to be able to visit again! God bless you all…
