Return to Paradise: Chapter 10
10
Her dreams took her to a fair land, with greenery everywhere and spectacular colors streaking through the sky. She was walking in the woods, and although it was not permitted for her to walk on the bare earth, she felt a certain ease.
Suddenly she saw a brilliant light that seemed to come from a cloud and reach down to the earth. Lexy felt a sense of peace she’d never known and her body was filled with love. A great voice began to talk to her.
“We walk by faith, not by sight. Be free, my child, from the love of money; content with such things as ye have: for He Himself hath said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’ So that with good courage we say, The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What shall man do unto me?” Speaking without words, but with her heart, Alexis told the voice her troubles. The answers gave her hope.
“In the world, ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I will give to eat from the tree of life which is in the midst of the Paradise of God. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Let the people know these words you have received.”
