About Me

My Story

Suzanne embraced Christianity at sixteen while attending a Billy Graham crusade in Toronto. Her church involvement has been a source of great joy. Despite having had a good Sunday School teacher, Suzanne admits that, back then, she lacked an understanding of all that Christ has done. Her interest in spiritual growth emerged in her thirties, eventually leading her to pursue theology studies at what is now Tyndale University. With the invaluable guidance of spiritual mentors, her faith became stronger and her commitment to spiritual growth more compelling.

Suzanne says, “Even though I was raised in a Christian family, I admit to not fully comprehending Jesus’ impact on believers. In terms of spirituality, none of us can match Christ’s perfection. However, through faith in God’s Son, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, a Divine force brings new life and God’s abundant mercy. This transformative power of faith, guided by the Holy Spirit, continually changes our hearts, motivating us to express love and gratitude to our Heavenly Father as we serve and love our neighbours. This ongoing transformation in our hearts is a testament to the living power of our faith. Through a relationship with our Triune God, we realize His presence and hear His guiding voice in unique and various ways.”

Time for fun and family trips

May new sights inspire and motivate us as we have the good fortune to travel. Through heartwarming journeys with my family, I understand the mind-expanding power of exploring distant places. My goal here is to kindle inspiration and impart knowledge about the profound value of travel in our lives. Whether I was on a solo adventure or a family escapade, each trip led me to destinations brimming with unique charm and significance. I’ve led groups on various tours, including three to Israel and others to the East Coast of the U.S., Nashville, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Bermuda, and the West Coast of the U.S., from San Diego to Vancouver. I’ve also journeyed to Antigua, where I contributed to establishing a long-term care facility, and explored other Caribbean Islands like Jamaica, St. Lucia, and the Dominican Republic. Our family has shared countless moments of joy, from our various trips to Florida, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and several European countries, including France, Spain and Portugal, to our adventures across Canada and travels in the U.S.

Our family trip to Hawaii and my visit to Australia and New Zealand were delightful, creating unforgettable memories. These moments of joy and connection make family times genuinely memorable. Other trips to Alaska and the Grand Canyon were mind-expanding and provided opportunities for personal reflection which allowed me to gain deeper insights into myself and the world around me. Some journeys were challenging, whether navigating unfamiliar narrow streets, driving on the left side of the road, or dealing with challenging language barriers, these adventures all played integral roles in my personal growth journey. I share my experiences and insights with you, hoping that they inspire and motivate you on your own travel journeys.

Fun-filled travels, whether with family or solo, can add joy and balance to one's life.

The experiences gained from these travelling journeys can be a source of rejuvenation and inspiration, enriching our lives in ways we never thought possible.

Embarking on heartwarming journeys with my family, I’ve discovered the mind-expanding power and sheer joy of exploring distant places. My aim is to share this joy and the profound impact of travel on our lives. Whether it’s a cozy timeshare or a brief visit to a bustling city, every journey strengthens family ties and rejuvenates the mind. As the saying goes, ‘change can be as good as a rest’, and I couldn’t agree more.

Our family has shared countless moments of joy, from our various trips to Florida, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and several European countries, including France, Spain and Portugal, to our adventures across Canada and travels in the U.S. I have had the good fortune to enjoy several cruises, one in the Mediterranean with visits to Italy, Dubrovnik and other southern and northern European countries, which included a visit to the Baltic Countries and Holland. I also visited the fjords in Norway and the northern cities of Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Russia. On a separate cruise to Alaska, I witnessed glaciers were melting much faster than usual due to global warming. A trip to the southwest of the U.S. included visiting northern Mexico and the Grand Canyon was amazing. I delighted in a cruise up the St. Lawrence during the fall, while taking in the brilliant colours of autumn leaves. I enjoyed a walk around old Quebec City. I took a pleasurable stroll down the streets of Sydney, Nova Scotia. The bus tour around bustling New York was quite fascinating. All of these trips have strengthened our family bonds, bringing new insights and joy to the soul.

About The Book

Journey through 'Embraced by God’s Love and Light'

During my most challenging moments, I’ve yearned to hear Jesus’s voice, feel His comforting touch, and see His forgiving, tender gaze. As a child, I imagined finding solace in His warm embrace, a place of love, care, and reassurance in the presence of our benevolent God. This deeply personal connection with Jesus, which I believe is available to all, brings me profound comfort and reassurance, and I hope it does the same for you, offering a sense of peace and security in His presence.

The Scriptures vividly depict what it was like to meet Jesus in person. We can picture sharing a meal with Him or sitting at His feet and absorbing His teachings. In the Gospels, we encounter the stories of fortunate individuals whose lives were profoundly changed by His words and His tender, loving, accepting nature, instilling a sense of connectedness, inspiration, and hope in us.

This book offers a glimpse into a vast subject. The author’s aspiration is that as God’s Love and Light embraces us, we acknowledge and express gratitude for the constant presence of the one Triune God, made real in God’s son, Jesus Christ. The narratives of those who have shared their journey with God are brimming with hope, inspiration, encouragement, gratitude, peace, joy, and praise. The book’s personal faith stories uplift and motivate us in our spiritual journeys, filling our hearts and spirits with hope and inspiration.

Acknowledgements

Embraced by God’s Love and Light was made possible by the collaboration of many contributors. A diverse collection of stories, this tapestry of timeless accounts reflects personal encounters with God in unique and individual ways. Each submission, whether shared in writing or orally, is a precious addition to the book. The selection process involved carefully reviewing each story, considering its uniqueness, relevance, and alignment with the book’s theme. Some stories are published as they were received. Due to space limitations, I could not publish all the submitted God experiences, but each was a valuable contribution.

If Embraced by God’s Love and Light is well received, the potential for a sequel is not just a hope but a thrilling possibility. A book sequel could offer opportunities for other Christian writers to share their unique stories, thereby creating a platform for more diverse and inspiring God-encounter stories. The future is bright, and I am hopeful and eager to see what more we can create together.

This website may appear to focus on the author’s passion and inspiration behind the creation of this book. Still, I wish to recognize and applaud the many contributors whom God has touched and who willingly shared their experiences. Without their submissions, Embraced by God’s Love and Light would not have been possible. It is with respect and appreciation that I acknowledge their contribution and friendship. I sincerely thank each writer.

Embraced by God’s Love and Light is not just a book, but a mission to inspire and reassure readers of God’s active presence in our lives. It is a compellingly readable collection of fantastic stories that will reaffirm your faith and bring you closer to God.
