The Secret Child
“I’m sorry, Mrs. Hart, but either you entered the information wrong or you weren’t born in Rochester, New York.”
That phone message changed my life. I was just simply trying to get a copy of my birth certificate for a new passport I needed. Just a simple, ordinary everyday task led me on an unexpected life journey full of intrigue and surprises. Can one phone call change your life? My answer, yes.
“I’m sorry, Mrs. Hart, we don’t have any records on file for you.” Pause. “Have you checked with the Adoption Registry Department?” Adoption Office? I was forty-one years old. I was the spitting image of my mother, and my brother looked just like my dad. What? There's no way. Something must be wrong.
If I indeed was adopted, then who were my real parents? Where did I come from? What was my story?
My autobiography reads like a fiction novel. Unexpected twists and turns and hidden secrets reveal that truly I was The Secret Child. Throughout my journey I chose to be joyful. I trusted that truly my steps were ordered of God, and that He had a reason and purpose for every step I took.
My journey is not over. It is just beginning. I have a new story to tell. When you least expect it, God can surprise you. I discovered that it was an absolute miracle that I was even born. My life should have ended in Sweden in 1965. We are all here for a reason.
Be ready. When you least expect it, God might decide to give you a new story, too!
