— “I am convinced that every one of us has a purpose---a reason to be alive that leads us to live in a way that benefits others.”
Valeria Teles interviews Roxanne Wermuth — the author of “Inked for Eternity: Living in the Light of Heaven on Earth.”
Roxanne Wermuth is a life-long resident of Lapeer, Michigan. She married her high school sweetheart, David on June 2nd,1972. They have two beautiful daughters and one grandson whom they are raising. Their lives have been blessed through tears of pain and the joy of God’s redeeming promise. Roxanne is marked by Heaven and is living for Eternity on earth.
Driven by her ruthless career ambition and Type-A personality, Roxanne Wermuth was unwittingly following the path of her abusive, perfectionist father. Yet, it was only after receiving a diagnosis of the most severe form of Multiple Sclerosis that she fell victim to deep depression and the overwhelming desire to take her own life. It was then that one glimpse of Heaven changed everything. Near death and in a 24-hour coma, Roxanne caught a glimpse of the outskirts of Heaven. Under a deep blue eternity…flowers bloomed, colorful and vivid, beyond human description… Eternity put everything into perspective.
After losing her hair due to treatment for her illness, Roxanne---not without reservation---tattooed the flowers of heaven onto her scalp. “The flowers inked on my head are an expression of what God inked on my heart”. Making a radical statement to everyone she meets; Roxanne remains a walking billboard for the beauty---despite the pain---in this world to come.
Whether struggling with relationships, loss, anger, depression, or chronic illness, her book will give you hope and inspiration to come out strong on the other side of hard times and help you rewrite your own future. This inspirational story will have you living in the light of God’s presence, realizing that afflictions are temporary and what is unseen is eternal.
