An Epiphany of Knowing Without Really Knowing

While driving into work this morning, I feel as if I sort of had this epiphany, like I’ve come to understand my previous two posts as part one and part two of a trilogy, of sorts.

In part one, called, “Sometimes it Takes Losing Your Voice to Find it” I spoke about having literally lost my voice and unable to speak. This experience provided me with the opportunity to look deeper on the importance of one’s voice. Click on the link below for the blog post.

In part two, called, “He Makes All Things Possible” I shared information about someone I know was very recently diagnosed with cancer. I spent time thinking about and reflecting on what receiving this news meant to me. Click on the link below to read more about this.

Part three came this morning on my drive to work. Looking back, I didn’t know. Now, it almost seems so simple as the means in which God was trying to draw me in close to him and hear what He was about to say. He was giving me hints, clues and insight were given in part one. In part two, I didn’t share what type of cancer, so I will tell you now, so it makes more sense-Esophageal Cancer

When I got to thinking the area in which they have the cancer, and thinking about the area in which I lost my voice and was focused on that, I do believe God brought my attention to this area of my body for a reason. He was preparing me for what I was about to hear.

I do believe this was a test of faith and trust to see if I would lean into Him and trust in the voice that comes from within. He is teaching me to become a better person, wiser as I gain confidence in knowing who He is and how He speaks to me personally. His messages, His word come in His own timing. I know I was not ready to receive that message I’ve been given prior to this. He patiently waited me out, was gentle, kind and ever so loving.

Who would have known prior to this that there would be any connection between these experiences? Looks like the rewards are great when we open our hearts and minds to God and allow Him to take over and transform our lives.
