I’ve had several crystals since 2020 when I was beginning my spirituality journey. Thankfully, that journey led me to Jesus and out of the occult.

The Lord had placed it on my heart to get rid of the crystals. He wants all of my heart and if I’m holding onto things that don’t serve me or glorify Him, that only keeps a separation between us.

It took me awhile to come around to the idea that anything outside of Jesus is unnecessary. Truthfully, when my sister lovingly called me out on it, I was offended. Now I look back and praise Jesus for her boldness to speak truth regardless of my feelings

The only service these rocks did for me was lead me to continue to question the higher power out there. Jesus uses everything for His good. He can take anything and use it for a testimony of His grace

I wasn’t anticipating the overwhelming feelings I felt while doing this. I called it anxiety in the video but I know it was deeper than that. I was breaking off bondage and it can be intense, as casual as I look during this, my insides were going a hundred miles a minute. Hence why my words weren’t coming out

April 2020. 6 months after losing two people that I never imagined life without. I was trying to handle the grief on my own. I was drowning in a sea of drugs, alcohol, partying, hookup culture. I was hopeless. I was in a constant daze, completely checked out of life and doing anything I could to numb the pain.

I didn’t go looking for God. I never thought I was worthy of Him knowing me. I thought I was just another number to Him. Another face, another purposeless human.

It wasn’t until right before finals week of my senior year of college, the last week of April that I encountered God. I stayed up every single night that week because sleep was impossible for me at that point. It seems like I hadn’t slept in months. Something in me said screw it, let’s go see sunrise since it’s already 4am.

I drove to Spring Point Lighthouse. It was overcast and barely any colors as the sun began to rise. I didn’t get the sunrise I wanted.

Instead, I cried out to Him. I sobbed. I wailed. In the early hours of the morning before the world got noisy, I screamed. I wanted to know why this happened, how it was possible to lose two men in under 48 hours that I didn’t believe I could go on without.

This was the first time in six months that instead of crying by myself, I acknowledged Jesus there with me, sitting in the yota, hearing what I was choking out between sobs.

He never intended for us to go through life alone. To try to carry the pain, anger, guilt, and hopelessness that comes with the loss of loved ones. It is impossible for us as humans in our tiny capacity to process those emotions without the One who created them.

I didn’t go to church to find God. I wasn’t expecting to ever know God the way I do now.

All it takes is a tiny muster seed of faith to take that first step towards Him for your life to change.

If you asked me where I would be in three years at the beginning of 2020, I would’ve told you dead.

Jesus gave me new life and with this life, I will forever glorify Him 🤍 taken in Portland, Maine by @justgriz
