28: Another Chance
Three months passed without Titus seeing even the remotest signs of forgiveness from Ericka. She acted as if she hated him⦠or maybe like she was hurt. Every time he saw her at church, she did everything she could to show him the I-detest-everything-about-you look.
But that was old news. Not that he had retreated effortlessly. He was still seeking God and waiting for a miracle, but he had to move on with his life and Saturday was one of those important moving-on kinds of days.
Rachel Byrd had gotten herself all made up for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Her makeup was beautiful, she had gotten her hair done, she was wearing a cute dress, and Titus couldnât help but notice how her smile lit up the yard. All of their hard work had paid off.
âItâs time, friends!â Pastor OâMalley announced. âIf you folks wouldnât mind, please pay attention. Iâm going to have the new director of Laborers for God say a few words⦠Brock?â
Brock had Victoria help him write his speech. Well, truth be known, he wrote it, but he knew the majority of the crowd wouldnât understand his choice of vocabulary, so Victoria helped him tone it down a notch. âHi everybody. I count it a great pleasure to be here this afternoon. Farmington has been going through some serious trials for quite some time and Iâm thankful God has allowed this ministry to step up and make a difference. We have faced some hardships, but God has brought us through each and every one of them. Here in a moment, weâre going to cut the ribbon and allow Rachel Byrd and her family to enter their new home. Before I do that, Iâd like to ask Rachel and her children to come up here with me for a moment.â
Rachel smiled nervously as she slowly approached the front. Her two daughters wasted no time â they made a mad dash toward the front of the crowd. Her son, on the other hand, was a different story. At four years old, Carson didnât understand what was going on. He cried and yelled âNo!â while trying to move backward as Rachel attempted to gently pull him toward the front without creating a scene. âNo, Mommy! No!â
The audience laughed as Rachel picked him up, tears and all, and joined Brock and her daughters in front of the yellow ribbon.
âWould you like to say anything?â Brock asked.
âHow could I ever express my thanks to such a wonderful group of people? This house looks gorgeous and I havenât even seen the inside yet. Itâs like a dream come true!â Rachel sniffled a couple of times and tried to keep her emotions under control. âThis is the best thing thatâs ever happened to my family. I donât want to bore you all with our story, but weâve been throughâ¦â she sniffled again, âweâve been through things I hope none of you ever have to experience.â
Shaking like a leaf Rachel continued, âBut today⦠today my children and I have hope for a brighter future.
