I just lost my lengthy response to this piece and I can’t find it. I’m so sorry because it outlined, in detail, a similar experience I had. Let me just say that the promise is that the joy and love you experienced that day, you will experience once again, with both your daughters. And when it happens again you won’t have to say goodbye. Ever again.

WOW, wow , wow. I had no idea I was in for such a god-given reading feast today. The epiphany was unknown to me a few weeks ago before I felt god leadme to learn about it. I didn't even know it was a thing in some christian traditions. It simply amazes me how he draws us in and teaches us. I don't think there could be a better source of writing for me this year on soaking in the epiphany- than from you Laura. Thank you for writing and sharing. I'm in awe of your talent and thankful to our Father for leading me here. 🔥😊. I had an epiphany 7 years ago and cannot put into words what you have done so beautifully. I am refreshed and enlightened and ever grateful I pray to never forget this first epiphany and everyone thereafter. 🩵🙏🔥🔥
