Tetelestai - The last word spoken by Jesus Christ was Tetelestai, which means “it is finished.” When Jesus said, “Tetelestai” just before He died on the cross, He had accomplished His mission as mandated by God for all of humanity to have the ability to freely access God the Father to receive all the promises as a child of God through the price paid by Jesus.
Embarking on a journey through the valley of death, one must know Jesus has already paid the price. Victory is not in the end result. True victory in life is having the ability to walk by faith daily, enjoy the life you are given, and trust Jesus paid the price at Calvary regardless of the pain, disappointment, or suffering you may face this side of Heaven. Whatever circumstances, you face – this life is temporary. Knowing Jesus suffered the shame of the cross, took your sins upon Himself, finished His race, and rose again will enable you to do whatever this life requires of you. As time passed and our life unfolded, we needed far more than I could have imaged. However, no matter how painful, God’s grace carried us through. Ultimately, we learned God was faithful to His will and promises at every turn or twist in our testimony.
As a reader, look at my life as a large puzzle with over 1,000 pieces. As you travel through this journey, you will see how God takes all the pieces to a very complex story and puts them together into a beautiful picture. Latch yourself in and be prepared. Although this is a testimony of God’s miraculous power, it is not easy to realize the depth of pain and suffering my family endured. Due to the nature of this story, I have changed the names of people involved as not to expose who said what at different points. Just know, although the names are not listed, this true testimony is our walk of faith.
