      God Is Still Writing Your Story

      We are all going to have good chapters and bad chapters. We’re going to have times when we think, I do not like this story and other times we think, I do like this story. The key is to not get stuck in life’s difficult chapters but keep moving to the flow of the Author’s pen. God is still writing your story.Father, some chapters of my story that are so difficult. However, I know You can use all the broken pieces to make a magnificent masterpiece. Help me not get stuck in a bad chapter due to disappointment or discouragement, but to keep moving forward, knowing there is more to be written. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.Where are you right now?

    Lilka Finley Raphael

    Lilka Finley Raphael has been a licensed pharmacist for over thirty years. Still, she has learned that the most potent prescriptions are not in bottles. Prayer and persistence are far more effective than any medication dispensed. A love for writing, gardening, and photography prompted Lilka to share her experiences and life lessons on her blogs God, autism and me, B Is for Blessed, and God and the Garden. Lilka’s most recent accolades include a Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference 2024 Selah Award Finalist for the Published Devotion category and recognition at the Asheville Christian Writers Conference as 2024 Sparrow Award winner. Lilka is also a monthly contributor to Edie Melson’s the Write Conversation, a Writer’s Digest top one-hundred website for writers. However, Lilka’s greatest achievements are her two adult sons who have flown the nest. Happily married for thirty-one years, she lives east of Atlanta, Georgia with her husband, Rod. They share their home with two German Shepherds—Holly and Ivy—and one naughty kitty, Moxie. Lilka's musings and photography are available at lilkaraphael.com
