Follow along with this Journey Through Time as family history, Faith, and Heritage are revealed to Celebrate 250 years of Freedom in the USA! During a difficult season of life, I began researching my ancestors and uncovered far more than names and dates. Hidden within old letters, photographs, and historical records was a Trail of Faith, Courage, Sacrifice, and Perseverance left by generations of Christ-followers. Their stories became a gift, long waiting to be opened—revealing God's Faithfulness across time and leading me into a deeper relationship with Him.

Through personal Testimony and Honest Reflection, discover Lessons Learned through Adversity and the Transforming Power of God's Grace. These are not polished stories of Perfection, but Authentic Journeys of Awakening, Healing, and Redemption—offered to Encourage those seeking Truth, Freedom, Purpose, and the Courage to take the next step Forward.
Words can reach places the world cannot see. Through poetry and reflection, difficult experiences are transformed into Stories of Faith, Healing, and HOPE. Whether you are carrying loss, seeking understanding, or simply needing encouragement, may these Offerings of Pain in Process remind you that God can turn Pain into Purpose and Beauty from Ashes.

"Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your pleasures."
James 4:3

Before the opioid crisis, I worked within the healthcare system and witnessed firsthand how medications were managed and dispensed. Years later, as a long-term pain patient prescribed opioids, I experienced the devastating consequences of a system that had changed dramatically. Having seen both sides of the crisis—and lived through its impact—I felt compelled to speak up. The testimony and documents shared here represent my effort to put Truth on the Record, promote accountability, and help prevent future harm.

Scripture is filled with Testimonies of Saints and Sinners being Tried and Tested. God allows us to experience difficulties to Test us, Teach us and Ultimately TRANSFORM us into a LIVING TESTIMONY of His Power and Grace. 
Are we viewing others through a Shaded Lens of someone else's Sin or looking through a Projection of our own?

Do NOT wait to Surrender to the God of ALL the Universe! The TIME is NOW...!

We're All Being Tested,

About Grace Colored Glasses

God gave me a Transformed View of Life; Grace Colored Glasses to correct the view I had of myself and the world, after a lifetime of living in Survival Mode. For more than fifteen years, I navigated chronic back pain caused by a faulty epidural and became trapped in the pain-management system. Along the way, layers of unhealed trauma and adversity shaped how I coped with pain. But in 2019, God Clarified my vision! As healing began to take root, I came to understand that God was transforming my Suffering into a Sturdy Structure to Stand on; nothing had been wasted. The Lord was preparing me, for such a time as this.
And He's Preparing you too...!! Before the Lord guided me in how to wean myself off of prescription opioids and other medications, the deeper wounds of my childhood remained buried. Wearing other people's Shame for so long and storing up my own, had veiled my understanding of who I am before God. Through Deep Inner Healing, I began to recognize how early trauma and years of being scapegoated had kept me bound to a half-life, rather than the fullness God intended. Accepting God's Grace and giving it Freely has done what striving never could—it set me Free. I was profoundly grateful to be given another opportunity to live! Grace Colored Glasses became a sort of refuge—a way to process pain and continue healing.; to See myself more Clearly, through a Lens of Grace and to Feel Seen and Loved Deeply by God as He directs my Path.
Jesus and God’s Holy Word became my Steady Support in what I can only call, Rogue Recovery Revelations. As the Lord led me on a Journey through Time; Scripture, Reflection, and Writing helped me to Process Deep Wounds and Secure His Healing. As I grew in Christ, I developed an Inner Knowing that complete Surrender to Him is where the Deepest Healing Resides and the Peace He Provides must be shared with others. This space exists to offer HOPE! God is ALL Powerful! He alone brings True and Enduring Freedom. 
My prayer is that those who feel Stuck, Unseen, or Dependent on chemicals for survival would believe in a better way forward. 
Through Grace Colored Glasses, I hope to encourage others to release long-buried pain and to trust that healing is possible through Faith in Jesus Christ, no matter the cause. He gives us HOPE and instructs us in what to do...
As citizens of this earth, we should ALWAYS have access to God's Provision of Plants and Herbs, given unto us for food and for Healing. Our bodies were created to Heal, given the proper environment. We need BALANCE and the reality of human existence includes the need for adequate pain medication. The Faith of our Founders should Unite us all to properly Steward our Vessels for God's Purposes.
"Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your pleasures." James 4:3 Reading through the Bible has become a source of Daily Nourishment for my soul. As my spirit is fed, the Lord helps me walk in His Abiding Love. By God's Grace, the Past has been Transformed into Treasured Lessons; the Evidence of Truth, in the Courts of Heaven.
I am deeply thankful for the people the Lord placed in my life to help me move Forward and for the gift of Living Free—aligned with God's Truth, Grounded in His Perfect Peace, and Sustained by His Love. Be Blessed and Have Hope, With God, all things are possible, for such a time as this...
