Why was TWCOL written? I can only say that The Wind Chimes of Life is a spiritual gift from the Holy Spirit because I did not know that my diary, a.k.a. journal, was destined to be a book. I was in a difficult and transitional place in my life, (as were many others close to me), and as The Holy Spirit prompted me I wrote down on paper what was on my heart. It was an "emptying out" experience for me. All the emotions and feelings that I could not or did not express to anyone were poured out on paper. As I wrote I was very honest with my words and thoughts because I did not expect anyone to read them. Throughout my journaling, I kept seeking words of wisdom from God to help me navigate through the issues, moment in time experiences and emotions; and the soul searching of my conscious. Then, it happened! The Holy Spirit quietly revealed to me that what I had written was a book to be shared with others because I wrote about life; and everyone could relate to what was on the pages of my heart. I hesitated at first, but then through prayer became bold with faith. Once I made the commitment to follow-through, The Holy Spirit put everything in place for The Wind Chimes of Life (A Journey, the Journal, the Life Lessons 101 and The Word of God) to be born through me for encouragement and inspiration for you. Job 38:1 (TLB) “Then the LORD answered Job from the whirlwind.” Have you ever been betrayed, bullied or slandered? Yes, yes and yes; I have certainly had these experiences in my personal life! And, since this infamous trio, unfortunately, is intertwined in the fabric of this world's lack of kindness, I know that many of you have experienced the same. Betrayal, bullying and slandering are among the arsenal of tools that the enemy uses to try and destroy your self-esteem; discourage and frustrate you; and to control your existence. It hurts when you are ostracized and do not "fit in" with your peers; and feel left out when you are not considered to be a member of the "in crowd." It is only human nature to want to be liked and accepted. However, it is more important to not allow this assault of the enemy to hinder your walk with God. Although, bullying is no respecter of person, age, family nor stage or position in life; and betrayal, slander and gossip are collaborators, neither is too difficult for God to handle! God, sees, knows and cares! Deuteronomy 3:22 (NIV) "Do not be afraid of them; the LORD your God himself will fight for you."
