Faith
/ Autumn McKenzie JacksonEverything is going to work out. Change and trials happen. I was concerned that I was given more that I could handle. I was looking for a reason to give up. Still, I am not a quitter!
I am in awe of the peace that has been mine. It can only be explained by God. The joy and optimism that I have today is real. I am non confrontational. If your beliefs are different, I am not looking for heated debates over the tenants of religion. I just want to be transparent- my faith has given me and continues to give me hope. There is beauty in differences and dialogue. I can only share my experience as I know it to be true.
I don’t know exactly when I realized that I was scheduled to work the same day Audrey and I were to fly to Orlando, Fl for National Club Swimming Association (NCSA) Age Group Championships.
As I prepared for my brother’s life celebration, I found out that I had no way to prepare for what I experienced. I already have the utmost admiration for my brother, still, over the course of one afternoon at West Point…
I am certain I did not understand the full significance of what he wrote then nor do I now, but I knew enough to hold onto his letters.
I tend not to be awestruck, but my older brother, Darrell, is an exception. He is my superhero.
If you have never made a declaration of faith and you want to make that commitment, here is how.
This is my nephew Joshua. He is the boy in my Joyful Crew!
