Note: incase i forget — letters from a sincere place is a compilation of letters written in seasons of wrestle and hope. since childhood, my favorite way to cope is to share about my days and my heart. life transitions can make the heart grow old and cold, but I believe each one of us will always keep a part of ourselves that can never be outgrown.

these letters are personal and I’m keeping them to remind myself how God’s grace and mercy carried me through different and changing seasons of my heart. in breaking and breakthrough, there is a God who cares and loves us deeply. if you ever find the time to read these letters, my hope is that it encourages you not to be strong, but to be unashamed of your vulnerability and brokenness. take the risk to bare your heart and always remember that Jesus delights when we lay down at His feet.

Dez,

Soon the assignment of assassination that has warred you will come to an end.

Soon you will be able to see the blessing and the breakthrough and not just the breaking.

Soon you will be able to remove your survival backpack and enjoy the ground that has been taken and the territory God has given you.

There is a new season about to begin where every promise you were given comes to fruition.

Your season of return will come and there will be a fruitful payback for the hard road you have walked through, and trees of life will begin to replace the branches of discouragement and agony.

You will experience softness in your heart in a way that you haven’t felt in years, and you will see a new sunrise break open over areas of your life that you felt were hardened.

If you feel decommissioned by the warfare and attacks of the enemy, know that God has a brand new day awaiting you.

It’s not over and fresh start is just around the corner.

The Lord will turn the loss and emotional beating of this battle into a monument and a key of victory you can pass onto others journeying the same road.
