Intense loss, whether it be a loss of a child, soulmate, parent, sibling, beloved pet, health, identity, social status, finances, or reputation facilitates the experience of an emerging new dimension of emotion, mental, and spiritual clarity. This phenomenon, once stripped of something deeply valued through loss suddenly and inexplicably, the anguish or intense fear gives way to a sacred sense of deep peace and serenity and complete freedom from fear.

It takes a purposeful study of God’s Word to truly come to know Him in all that He is. He is the Creator of sunsets and of hurricanes. He is the Creator of majestic mountains and of tidal waves. He is Sovereign, Holy, God Almighty, Creator, Redeemer, most loving and most terrifying. Our personal, spiritual, and professional identity is not determined by what we have done or will do. What we do is determined by our identity; who we are and by the beliefs we hold dear of ourselves and others. Our position and identity in Christ is not just our personal truth; rather it is the foundation for living and growing in Christ. God challenges us to be “an epistle…known and read by all men.” (Nelson, 1985) It is through clear understanding of the facts, principles, and concepts presented in God’s Word that one can manifest the person God declares him to be. Forever Transformed is written in poetic form, or in biblical terms; a Psalm. It is a religious pilgrimage; a spiritual awakening, as God delivers us from darkness into the light.
