“Yes, my son, the angels speak to us often, and with our hearts in the right place, we can hear them. Never forget to keep God in your heart, for if you don’t, you will find the day you quit hearing them speak to you.”
– quote from Bruecke To Heaven by Timothy W. Tron
Having just submitted the final galley proof for the book, I am now left with the vacuum of emotion that remains. I can’t help feeling as if I’m standing on the edge of a great chasm, where there is nothing be emptiness beyond, an expectation of unknown things to come. I fear not for I have faith to lift me up, yet, it’s exciting knowing that there is and adventure about to begin.
Its seems that many times in my life I have been clipped and kept down to earth. When I was growing up, in order to keep the chickens from being able to escape their fenced in area, we would clip them by cutting the long feathers off of one wing. This would keep them grounded where we could more easily provide for their safety inside their enclosure. My clipping has been from the virtual aspect, whereby either circumstances or responsibilities have kept me grounded. There is nothing wrong with being well grounded, but sometimes we should be allowed to be set free with our visions and see how far they go. In this case, its the journey that the book will provide.
If it is successful, then its God’s will. I am not looking beyond what he provides, rather taking it one day at a time and being blessed by each new discovery the mission provides. In my opinion, the success or failure will not be measured by how many books are sold but rather how many lives are touched and hearts lifted up by it. May the light of the Word be a beacon to all.
This is the journey…let it begin.
