This journey will take you back in time, to when I was 17 and thought I knew everything. Only time would come, and God capturing my heart will that change. As I said in my last post...I want this blog to reach the hurting and the abused, and those who just want a touch of Grace. So as you go along the journey with me of the past, present and future, I pray your heart would be touched and that the Transition of God's Grace begins.
When I was 17 boy did I think I knew everything...my parents were so stupid. So I decided to take off with my boyfriend and run-away. So where did I run-away, to his yellow chevy s-10 pick-up truck, in the middle of the winter. But keep in mind I knew everything....I remember being so cold that night sleeping in that truck, and to think I had to do it again the next night. What was I thinking? Obviously 20 years later I wasn't.
So after one night of sleeping in his truck and him making promises that he would keep me safe and he would find us a warm place to stay, that next night we were sneaking into his mom's house to his room down in the basement. Well at least I would be warm and safe just like he promised. That next morning was not so welcoming, so he decided that we should head to Akron, CO where he could stay with his Aunt. So I am thinking ok, that is a good idea. Well we arrived not so much unwelcomed by his Aunt, but not so much wanted either. So we pretended to be married and were able to get a room in the local hotel. Boy little did I know about "pretending" to be married. We were able to stay there for about a week until one day the Pastor of the church I attended with my mom called this hotel....the next thing I knew his brother was picking us up and taking me back home. How long did I stay? Not long...I ran away again...this time with permission from his mom to stay at her house...
