DENISE's TESTIMONY: July 2024
A FAILED QUEST FOR LOVE: THE END WAS JUST THE BEGINNING
For as long as I can remember, I wanted a love story.
Having a guy in my life was the only thing that mattered to live fully, so much so that when asked to identify future goals for my high school senior yearbook I wrote “to find true love and happiness” as if true love was a prerequisite for happiness, and happiness was something outside of myself that needed to be searched for and captured.
All of my teen years and every year of my adulthood through my mid-40s was spent trying to manufacture a love story, that coveted prize that could finally grant me happiness. What a recipe for disaster!...and not just for me, but for any man I unilaterally chose to cast in my script.
Thankfully, through God's grace and mercy, those days are behind me now.
The obvious catalyst for change was traumatic, divorce after 20 years of marriage. But there was more to it. Something in me, at my very core, was empty and fragile.
2020 hit hard with COVID and divorce, but with it transformation began.
From Off the Floor to Out the Door
I went from regularly crying on my closet floor completely lost, immobile, and heartbroken, to living joyfully with peace, and stepping into a life of provision, abundance, and love. I got to know, truly know, that SOMETHING BIGGER, for me God - Jesus - The Holy Spirit, was loving me and guiding my life.
It didn't just happen, though. I went through a process rooted in:
- reflective soul-searching
- lessons learned from multiple brilliant, inspiring sources, especially Elevation Church and Elevation Worship led by Pastors Steven and Holly Furtick.
But, for the process to really take hold and make a lasting difference, it had to be more than listening to or reading ideas that sounded good.
I had to take concrete actions that changed the way I saw and experienced life.
Those actions are shared in the interactive journal SOMETHING BIGGER LIVING: Actions & Mindsets for Spiritual Growth and an Unconditionally Happy Life.
Now, years later, not only did I heal from divorce, SOMETHING BIGGER LIVING still keeps me grounded, healthful, peaceful, grateful, and free.
