A Daily Relationship with God

I hope and pray to God that you readers have learned and enjoy reading my inspirational book as much as I have learned and enjoyed writing it. When God first gave me the idea to write this book, I was very unsure of myself and I did not think that I would be able to finish this book because this would mean that I would need three hundred and sixty-five days’ worth of inspirational words to help you get to know the same God that I had grown to know. At that time I had no clue how I was going to do that. Then God made me realize that, when he gives you a job to do, he will certainly give you the tools to see it through, and that is exactly what he did. I felt his presence beside me, leading me through different parts of the Bible, until one day I picked up my pencil to write and I found myself at the end of my book. All of a sudden I began to praise God and thank him for all of his help. I love God with all my heart. He has brought me a mighty long way. I have felt his presence at my weakest and loneliest points in my life.

In 2007 my house burned down as I lay in my bed and slept. When the firefighters finally found me, I was pronounced dead. They revived me and took me to Christiana hospital. My family came to the hospital to find out that over 98 percent of my body had carbon monoxide poisoning from the fire. From there I was airlifted to Baltimore Shock Trauma. The doctor in Baltimore told my family that, if I made it through the night, I would be brain-dead. I spent one month in the hospital, recovering. I am here today, telling my story through the grace of God. I should have realized back then that the good Lord had some unfinished business with me. I’m not sure what God has next for me, but you haven’t heard the last of Felicia Stevenson praising the Lord.

I Leave You for Now with This

May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.

Numbers 6:24–26
