Amazing things can come from the most unexpected places. This book is a collection of reflections, analogies, stories, and conversations I have had with God. In 2016, I began to write a blog for believers. I had just come out a depression. I had found myself on the bathroom floor when a wave of depression hit hard enough to ground me. The moment when I realized without being a student, maintaining a routine that I had for years upon years of my life, that besides being a devout Christian I had "no identity." The only things still on my schedule were church related. I remember feeling like "who am I in addition to being a person who goes to church?" So I asked God, and He answered, "That is enough. Everything else you will ever be will always be because of me!"
In that moment I made the decision that was enough for me, and I fully surrendered to whatever His will or plan was. I rededicated myself, my identity, my works, my life. Immediately after I shifted how I spent time with God, in the next few months, He deposited ministries in me to birth for leading other people closer to Christ as well.
I wanted to create a space that was relatable, with concepts that were easy to grasp, and consequently make a relationship with God easier to navigate. At some point, the idea changed to capturing it in the form of a book. As I began to compile, I committed to thirty new entries. When combined there were exactly 70 entries! So I researched the number 70 and learned it was a number emphasizing spiritual awakening and enlightenment, inner-wisdom and understanding, discernment and thoughtfulness, endurance and persistence of purpose. I decided to title the book 70 Days, 70 Ways He Speaks to Me because each of the entries grew from an encounter with God whether big or small.
I hope you too will find Him in these pages in new ways while being inspired to keep shining your light brightly in order to illuminate the way for others to follow.
