Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

No Heart's Desire is too Small

I really wanted my birthday off this year.  I mean, really.  And strangely, over the weekend, they started talking about having a huge blizzard.  In April.  Really.  And I prayed.  For real.  I just laid it out there for God.  I think that I just needed to be spoiled a little by my Daddy.  I needed to know He heard me...sees me...gets me.  I wouldn't have been angry with Him if He didn't send a snow day to my school district, but I longed for it.  Hoped for it.  Prayed for it.  And...He gave it to me.  Most would say it's a fluke.  A coincidence.  I know better.  I know that He saw me.  Held me close and said, "happy birthday, sweetie."  Brings tears to my eyes.  What a blessing.  Relationship.  Not religion.  He loves me.  Even me.  Just how I am.  Just where I am.  Stunning.  Unbelievable.  Yet...undoubtedly true.
blessings.
