Sister Dorthea

There is a particular nun that has made an impact upon my life Sister Dorthea, has been a gift to me, a true gift of God to this earthly plane. The light that shines around her can be felt by all when she is near and when she speaks, the sound that comes out can only be described as angels singing their heavenly song in perfect harmony. I feel so hopeful and I am surrounded by pure love when she is around, but what I feel is more than that. It's a feeling that I'd imagine to be what was felt by those who stood in the presence of Jesus Christ, so long ago. I believe she brought some of that energy with her when she descended from Heaven to bless all that know her and with the sole purpose of spreading that purely unconditional love and her knowledge of God. I'd say she is an angel herself, put here to teach and guide those that have veered off their own paths or lost their way completely in this journey we call life. She knows so much more than I in the ways of Heavenly love, She knows of things in this life that I couldn't even imagine. She has such unshakeable faith. Her faith is so strong that not even Mother Earths strongest earthquake, largest tsunami or most destructive hurricane could make it waver. There was a time in my life, when my own faith became weak. She stayed by my side through it all. She helped me see just how strong I am and how much my life is worth. She walked beside me when I could stand on my own, and when I'd stumble she'd offer me her steady hand. The days where I couldn't go on, she carried me, pushed and pulled me and wouldn't let me give up even if I couldn't see any other way. I'm here today because of her, my faith is now as strong as granite and I have a true connection with God, myself.. I'm sure she wasn't put here for her to help just one but Sister Dorthea has been a gift of God sent from Heaven to earth to helps those in need, like me. 5/17/2020
