Lilly Greene's journey to know the Lord stems from my very own childhood experiences and how I personally came to know that Jesus is real. Although our stories are not completely the same, much of my story is inspired by the naturistic aspect of God's creation, which is primarily how Jesus speaks to Lilly throughout this story.
Throughout much of my childhood, I would ask my grandmother how people come to find Jesus in a place where Jesus is not talked about. She told me that Jesus does not have to be shared through words but in the Lord our God's creations. More specifically, He reveals Himself to us through the simplicity of this world. Eventually, I found that the Lord began to reveal Himself to me through things like birds singing and the blooming of flowers in spring. I became fascinated with the art of our natural world. I then started to notice that each time my mother would tell me that she loved me, His presence would feel even stronger. With this story of Lilly Greene, I hope to encourage children and readers to know who Jesus is and the love that He has for me and for you. For those who have already accepted Jesus into their hearts, I pray that this story increases your faith and inspires you to find Him in the simplicity of this world. He is right in front of you; all you have to do is believe it.
