"The Dark Night Of The Soul Doesn't Have The Final Say"

▲ "I knew I was in the arms of God" ▼

Connie Jones, a great friend and occasional writing partner, in her own words:

When I awoke I couldn’t speak. I was mute. And although I was back on earth, I was also somewhere else. I felt like I was being given a choice, whether to stay with God and my sister, or come back to my family.



For a year I didn’t speak until, I believe, I made the decision to come back and use my voice to tell people about the experience I had with God. I felt God had come through for me and I wanted to come through for God, to come back and tell people he was real and his love was real. How amazing for a mute to be a voice for God!



Today, at age 56, I want people to know that the dark night of the soul doesn’t have the final say. My family was filled with despair and brokenness. There is so much pain in the world. I want people to know that God really does love you and is there for you.

Connie gave me a ton of help with Furies! She's awesome.
