Slaves were officially freed by the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. The news of freedom did not reach many slaves in the south until the good news was delivered by Union Troops in Galveston Bay, TX more than TWO YEARS later on June 19th, 1965.
Good news can travel faster now than in the 1860s. Yet, there are still times when a blessing is realized long after it existed.
- We’ve had friends who discovered family members they never knew they had.
- Some have checked out unclaimed property sites like this one in Oklahoma to discover something belonged to them, though they didn’t know.
- Some have discovered that their spouse was a real gem rather than a real jerk when they began to look for good instead of focusing on bad. Change your Perspective and Change Your Life.
- Others have realized that they actually knew Life, Relationship, and Marriage Coaches who could support them through significant transitions.
What might be yours that you are yet to grab hold of?
