This week Angel Murchison introduces us to Author, Janet Grillo on Destiny Moments. Janet, an amazing woman Angel met at a writers conference (Author 101) in Orlando, Florida. It was one of those destiny moments she tells us about that God orchestrates for us every day. Meet Janet Grillo, a woman of destiny. Janet’s husband died tragically on December 13, 2001. It wasn’t clear whether his death was a suicide, assisted suicide, suggested suicide, or murder. After his death, she was shocked to learn he was part of an organized crime ring when a close friend of her husband told her he had been involved with the Mafia. Janet wrote this book to help others understand that healing after a tragic loss does not happen overnight. When a sudden loss occurs, we are devastated beyond our wildest imagination. We have so many questions and have no idea where to turn for answers. Instead, we fold within ourselves and pray to God to help us through our pain. Sometimes we wonder if God truly exists. After her loss, Janet sat perpetual adoration at her Catholic church and decided to use her journal to write directly to God. One day she wondered what God would say if he wrote back. She began a new page “Dear Janet” and signed it “Love God”. Empty lines waited patiently while she waited anxiously to see if her request was crazy or profound. Janet was amazed when God spoke to her. through her head, heart, and soul. She shares the inspiring messages in the pages of this book. Janet Grillo’s book is a heartfelt expression of many traumas she has faced in her life. She writes from her heart and shares with the reader how her Christian beliefs helped her to survive and overcome extremely challenging times. Janet’s kindness and obvious caring of others shines through her book. You will enjoy meeting and hearing Janet. It will motivate and inspire you to move forward with hopefulness for your own future.
