God has given each of us a story and He has also given us the free will to choose to tell that story or to listen to the voices of fear and doubt and abandon that story by the wayside, afraid of where it may lead.
We are told to obey, to follow, and to listen. I would suggest that we are also compelled to write! Write the story that was given to you. Boldly take the steps as they are given, even if it may not be apparent at the moment where the next step will lead!
Trust that God has a legendary story laid out for you and hold onto your pen and keep writing, as it is given to you!
Sometimes that story might lead to places that are unknown or that seem dark, but take heart! We have a Guide who promised to never leave us!
Sometimes that story might lead us through physical pain or loss. Take courage, my friend. We have a Guide who is faithful and has promised to heal our wounds and brokenness.
Sometimes we will hear the voice of the enemy, taunting us, mocking us, making us question the Wisdom that keeps us following the Story that has been given to us. I urge you to keep writing what has been given to you! Keep focused on the voice of the One who gives us our story! When I say to be the author or your own story, I mean just that - Hold onto your pen tightly and do not give way to the many fears and doubts that will try to creep in and lead you away from the beautiful story of hope, courage and miraculous Love that you have been given.
We can be encouraged by the words of Jesus to the woman who sat at his feet, believing that she was unworthy and unwanted but hoping for some mercy when He said to her "Your faith has saved you; go in peace"
Have faith to follow and He will lead you.
Yes, God has given us a story - and He has also given us the free will to write that story or to abandon it.
I urge you to write!
Linda Todd is an inspirational and motivational speaker who is passionate about encouraging others to excellence and to the fulfillment of their purpose. She has also learned the powerful message as given by Dr. Erwin Lutzer in one of his earlier books, Failure: the back door to success (published in 1975 by Moody Press)
Failure does not prevent us from living out God's plan for us. Failure keeps us humble, it helps us keep ourselves in perspective compared to the greatness of God. Failure does not mean anything is over and done with.
Her adventures in travel have given her a chance to meet people around the world. Get excited as you hear her joy for the miracles given in her own life by the One who continues to give her a story to write.
Linda has explored other cultures, beliefs, and world views. She has traveled to the Middle East and found that even though her story led to her some dark and unknown places, and even when it seemed the last chapter was being written, God has more yet for her to write! Nothing is impossible!
She has an extensive background in public speaking, presenting, and stand up comedy. Her approach is refreshing, easy to listen to and easy to understand. Hear an authentic message from a REAL person!
In 2010, when Linda was in Gaza for the second time, she became gravely ill. Her doctors concluded that it was encephalitis, which attacks the brain. After suffering multi-organ failure and respiratory arrest, she was transported, in a coma, from Gaza to a hospital in Tel Aviv, Israel, where doctors still had no expectation that she would survive.
She was in a coma for almost three weeks but finally woke up! When she awoke, nothing worked anymore. She couldn't move, speak or even think properly. Again, no one had any expectation for her recovery.
It was a victory to even sit up in bed without falling over.
Gradually, Linda learned to walk, think and speak again. She regained the use of her arms and hands as well. Now she is fully recovered and her story continues still!
She has a message of faith, hope and miracles that she has been given to share.
You don't have to have been in a coma to think your story has come to an end.
