Tyra Garlington woke one morning dizzy, disoriented, and alone on the bathroom floor. Her pain was excruciating and she could barely breathe. Unable to move or call for help, she soon closed her eyes and surrendered to what she believed was inevitable. What happened next would change her forever. The Memory Box is a story of how one woman came to truly know and live the promise of God’s grace that had always been promised.

It is a series of reflections that give hope to anyone experiencing abuse, betrayal, clinical depression, or loss. In her brokenness, Garlington found peace and a way to move on to live a brilliant life full of giving, of helping others understand the power of knowing that you are not your circumstances and that God’s grace is there to uphold you and propel you forward in ways unimaginable.

When your heart attacks you violently and unexpectedly, you pray. As you struggle, you realize that God’s presence, power, protection, and provision are there to sustain you.

Tyra Garlington found the secret to his infinite grace-that its timeless promise came shining through was more than amazing-it was sufficient. Her story is her gift to you. To receive it, please open your heart and hear God’s message of grace for you.

A Companion for the Sitting Room of Your Soul

In the Memory Box Journal, I offer you the opportunity to enter the sitting room of your soul, be courageous enough to be vulnerable, and strong enough to be genuine. Let it be the keeper of your intimate thoughts and feelings. Let it be a place to reflect on and accept the starts and stops of your journey. Here you don’t have to be perfect, just present.

Life is a journey, not a destination; a process, not an event. Receive the messages at the top of each page as if they were a gift from a trusted friend. They are. Open each gift with anticipation of empowerment and encouragement. And if you find yourself stuck between your no-longer and your not-yet of your life, don’t let the not-yet be the hiding place. Let God’s blessings flow toward you. I will whisper helpful hints along the way.

She thinks “outside the box” and her “can do” attitude often encourages even the “not so willing” to participate in productive initiatives outside their comfort zone. Tyra’s professional training and background in education, psychology, business and government combine to give her a wide range of skills upon which to draw in any environment.

A steel magnolia through and through, Tyra has the Southern-belle delicate exterior with an unbreakable core that has seen her through many obstacles. While she has suffered abuse, loss, and cancer; her unbounded faith and belief that God has led her to help others who face insurmountable odds, volunteering to help women dealing with domestic violence and homelessness and mentoring children who live in worlds they cannot control.
