Day 3
FATHER God
SON Jesus
HOLY SPIRIT
When I was 10, my life got flipped upside down. My mom and dad separated. My mom moved to Cali and I was so confused. I didn’t know who to trust. The people who had always been my source of safety and support were now fighting for the same things in their own lives. I get it. NOW. But then… not so much… I was caught in the middle and couldn’t find my TRUE NORTH. What I didn’t know was my “True North” was already seeking me out. There were many in my village that rallied around me to ensure that this pre-teen girl wouldn’t get lost but it was my sister that would ultimately take me to a storefront church called Oneness Pentecostal Tabernacle on Linden Blvd, in Queens, NY, with her High School crew, where I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I still remember the church mothers tarrying over me that night so that I would speak in tongues… I didn’t and wouldn’t for many more years to come. But I Bless God for the prayers of so many who didn’t leave me in my confusion but instead lit a path for me to find my First True Love ♥️🙏🏾🙌🏾 who loved me even before I knew Him.
Thank you Godmommy Tita, Mrs. Bradshaw, Mrs. Sutton, Moriah Collins and and especially for living your faith out loud and being willing to bring this little girl along for the ride!
“Listen, God, I’m calling at the top of my lungs: “Be good to me! Answer me!” When my heart whispered, “Seek God,” my whole being replied, “I’m seeking him!” Don’t hide from me now! You’ve always been right there for me; don’t turn your back on me now. Don’t throw me out, don’t abandon me; you’ve always kept the door open. My father and mother walked out and left me, but God took me in.”
