Text to speech
“This is our new home.”
Nick placed his hands on his sons’ shoulders. “We’re renting now, but the owners are thinking about selling.”
This was getting more unbelievable by the second.
“Mrs. Buser mentioned yesterday that we’d be neighbors. I guess it’s true what they say about it being a small world.” He scratched the side of his head and crinkled his brow.
Neighbors? What was that old saying Joy had heard? Good fences make good neighbors—or something like that. That was it—she’d build a fence as high as her homeowners’ association would allow. She was president; she should know the restrictions. She’d have to check the covenants. Even still, building a wall around her property wouldn’t keep Nick out of her heart. “But this is my neighborhood. I moved here after college.”
“She lives right over there, Daddy,” Tyler announced, pointing in the direction of Joy’s one-story ranch home. “Isn’t that cool? Maybe she’ll invite us over for dinner sometime.”
This definitely wasn’t cool. Dinner? Absolutely not. How would she avoid Nick when he’d be just outside her door?
Thank you for once again paying a visit to Whispering Slopes...my favorite fictional town nestled in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. I hope you enjoyed reading the reunion story of Nick and Joy. Two wounded hearts who struggled with the “if only” when it came to their pasts.
If and only—two words that can start a person down the road of self-doubt. Questioning things we should have done, or something we shouldn’t have done. Choices. We all make them each day of our life. Some take us down the right path while others might send us spiraling into a world of regret.
But what is past is done. We don’t get a redo, but we don’t have to let our past define who we are today. That was the challenge both Nick and Joy faced, but thankfully they realized God’s forgiveness isn’t only available to a selected few. It’s there for the taking, if we step out in faith and ask.
Remember, nothing surprises God, so let it go! Don’t live a life burdened with guilt and regret. He has bigger plans for you, so don’t waste another minute.
