Conversations in Lavender: "A Woman's Healing Conversations with God Through Poems and Prayers" - Romalita Harrison - Bog

"I had no idea that's who she was. The revelation of her presence was akin to opening the door to find your dearest friend standing there. It is in this moment, you let go of the pretense you have been holding. The first of a thousand tears begin to fall, breaking the silent levies that held back the swell of emotional pain you were too ashamed to share, so you suppressed it until she arrived and said, it's me, I'm here... let the healing begin." - Grief Conversations in Lavender are Conversatios Divina (Divine Conversations) in healing. The story is told through poetry of one woman's journey to find ordinary grace in the presence and light of her own love. In her plea for mercy in her many conversations with God (Conversatios Divina) she finds comfort through writing poetry and prayers inspired by the Holy Spirit. "In my sorrow and pain; I prayed, I begged, I pleaded, I meditated, I bathed, I journaled, I prayed harder. Through it all, I knew God was present in my suffering. I also knew this would be my story, my Psalm, the experience by which God would use me." As acceptance of past takes hold, wisdom settles in. Her Conversatios Divina (Divine Conversations) liberate her to start anew and free in her own beautiful story of triumph, love, forgiveness, and healing.
