![]() MY Treasured moments with God....A Story by ROSALIND
Far-away up on a steep hill. Stood an Victorian run down historic building, Years had taken it's toll. The steeple slightly tilted to one side. Along side the marble stones deep cracks edged their way up from the foundations of the church. It would take a very highly skilled crafted workmen to restore it back to perfection.
With little funds the future of the building lay in the hands of the congregation. But the church meetings weren't well attended and the victor kept poor health. Things were looking very bleak and so it was decided to close the building for good. And to this day it stands there visited by thousands of tourists in the North of Scotland. Something caught my eye with great interest and to my amazement a giant rainbow shone through the little orange stain glass window, Suddenly out of no-where a magical beam of light shone like a cross amongst the blooming red roses. Immediately God's presence Had been watching over me and I treasured my relationship with God. I just knew that in my heart of hearts his glory was surrounding my life. I just needed to get away from the hustle and bustle at home. My circumstances weren't good very stressful, work played a huge part of my ill health- so I decided to stretch my wings and move to the country were it was peaceful and quiet and I could spend time alone exploring my photography and develop my relationship with God in a much deeper way. That required guts, but I was willing to sacrifice my family and friends. Of course they thought that I was a complete idiot. But they were just being selfish. Everyone has the right to be free. It has been a decade and I am glad that I had the courage to see it through, I wouldn't give this life up for no-one and now I am young and carefree. © 2013 ROSALIND |
