There's a window and a door in life. I've walked out many doors. With the door brings instant change...and exhaustion. Sometimes it scares you back to looking out windows.
After my last big change it all but drained me of everything...emotionally, financially and physically. It fogged my better judgement and confused the hell out of me. I rested and now I'm awake. It's made me realize now more than ever that I need to make the most of my life.
I wrote the above paragraph for this blog in 2009 thinking that I had endured the worst chapter of my life. Well touché to all the years since.
Soul crushing 9 to 5 office jobs convinced me to jump into creative Freelance. I've made a living as a photographer, designer, and also worked in marketing, retail sales and social media.
I lost just about everything between 2016 and 2019. But what came in to replace all my lost comforts in life was the greatest comfort of them all.
Psalm 56:8-13
You have taken account of my wanderings; Put my tears in
Your bottle.
Are they not recorded in Your book?
Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call;
This I know, that God is for me.
In God, whose word I praise,
In the Lord, whose word I praise,
In God have I put my trust and confident reliance; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
Your vows are binding upon me,
O God; I will give thank offerings to You. For You have rescued my soul from death, Yes, and my feet from stumbling, So that I may walk before God in the light of life.
