(https://promisehillpodcast.myflodesk.com/sacredpause) ***** From Grandma Eden’s Journal… Today, I met Mira at the edge of what she believes is the end. She came to me carrying that particular kind of loss that doesn’t always have words—when life has unraveled all at once. Divorce. Moving. Her mom. And now, the job she depended on… gone. To her, it feels like a burial. Like everything she built has been taken and placed in the dark. But I’ve lived long enough to know something she cannot yet see: Sometimes what feels like being buried… is actually being planted. Hope rarely arrives loudly. More often, it comes like a whisper. A small light. A gentle hand reaching through the soil. This is the start of Mira’s journey… the beginning of her learning that what feels like being buried may, in fact, be the very place where something new will take root. And I will walk with her, as someone once walked with me...if she lets me. ******************************* This is the first chapter in an unfolding story.

(https://promisehillpodcast.myflodesk.com/sacredpause) ***** From Mira’s Journal… I came back from Grandma Eden's today, still unsure of what I’m doing here… or how to begin again. She told me an ancient story, one about wells that felt strangely meant just for me. It was gentle, but unsettling in the way truth often is. As I listened, I realized something: healing isn’t just about time passing. Something in me has to choose something different. My patterns can’t stay the same if I want things to get better. And for the first time, I wondered if this hard season might be asking more of me than survival… it might be asking me to change. ********* Just as something begins to shift, Mira receives a call she never expected: her mother, who hasn’t recognized her in months… suddenly remembers. And with that, a deeper story begins. ********** ✨ New here? Promise Hill is a story told in chapters. Start with Episode 1 to follow Mira’s journey from the beginning.

Afraid to hope again? Bracing yourself for disappointment before it even happens? This chapter will meet you there. Mira is on her way to see her mother, who, for the first time in months, has called her by name. But instead of hope, fear rises first. What if it doesn’t last? What if it hurts even more?

(https://promisehillpodcast.myflodesk.com/sacredpause) ********** From Mira’s Journal… Today, my phone rang and for a moment, it was her: My mother. Clear. Present. Calling my name through the fog of dementia like a candle flickering in the dark. I should have felt only relief. But instead, worry rushed in.... again. I find myself in a spiral of questions. The same ones I always fall into...How long will this last? What if she disappears into that fog again? What if I miss the window? On my way to see her, I found myself caught in an unexpected conversation, one that gently got my attention: Healing doesn’t always come through answers. Sometimes it comes through presence. ********************* In Promise Hill, we explore life struggles through the lens of an unfolding story and what it means to discover the quiet ways God meets us in ordinary moments we almost miss.

Mira came today with the box from the attic, the one I told her about in the secret room Robert built years ago. I always knew this day would come, yet my hands still trembled when I saw it. She asked about her childhood again today… those small memories that quietly hold a family together. I was grateful for that. And the bluebird! oh, I was so happy she found it. Robert gave me that carving as a promise that no matter how far he traveled, he would always come home to us. But today also stirred an old fear. A few days ago, Eleanor called me. When I heard her voice, I knew the day I dreaded was getting closer. She is so angry and hurt by my actions. I was only trying to keep Mira safe. My mind is not what it was. I did play that up with Eleanor. She was so mad at me. I can hardly take it. Tonight I am praying. God, please give me the strength and the wisdom when the time comes. Guard Mira’s heart and help her see the love behind the choices we made. ********** 🌿 About Promise Hill Promise Hill is a serialized Christian fiction podcast blending immersive storytelling with gentle reflection and soul-care for women navigating loneliness, anxiety, burnout, breakups, and seasons of transition. 📖 Each episode includes: • One unfolding chapter • Reflection and faith-based encouragement • Practical action steps • Prayer Perfect for listening while resting, walking, or sitting quietly. ✨ Subscribe so you don’t miss the next chapter in Promise Hill. 🤍 Important Notes: To enhance the storytelling experience, I use AI for character voices and all images.

Then I remembered… the photo, the mysterious text, and the questions I can’t seem to shake. I went to see Grandma Eden today. I told her more than I expected to about my life. She listened the way she always does, like there’s no rush and no judgment. Later, she left a basket at my door to help me heal. Is that even possible? She left her homemade tea, a soul-care workbook called "Glowing in the Dark" and a note… and something else she didn’t mention. I don’t know what it means, but it feels important. And then the text came again calling me “Amira.” I don’t know who they think I am… but today, instead of hiding, I answered. I have a feeling I just stepped into something that will change my life forever. *********** In Promise Hill, we explore life struggles through the lens of an unfolding mystery and what it means to discover the quiet ways God meets us in ordinary moments we almost miss.

People say I’m “starting over,” but it feels more like pieces of my life are being uncovered. Some painful, some confusing, some I didn’t even know were missing. Today I met people who carry wisdom in different ways...Nathaniel who is steady like wood, and Gideon, who seems to be shaped by fire. And both left me wondering if I’ve been avoiding something I was meant to face. There are texts I don’t understand, memories I can’t place, and a name that isn't mine but strangely feels like it should.. I don’t know where this is going. But maybe healing isn’t about everything making sense first. Maybe it’s about walking forward anyway. ********** In Promise Hill, we explore life struggles through the lens of an unfolding mystery and what it means to discover the quiet ways God meets us in ordinary moments we almost miss.
