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.

I get to choose to rejoice

Rejoicing is a choice.  I almost wrote choicing. :)  It comes from the special peace that is put in my heart by God himself.  Though life can be very hard.  Though some seem to conspire to make it harder rather than easier....I GET TO CHOOSE.  I am free.  Free to choose hope.  Free to choose peace.  Free to choose joy.  Free to rejoice.  I get tangled up in all of the "stuff".  I get bogged down in the sludge of opinions and expressed disappointment.  I get beaten down by the battering of voices telling me that I have no right.  That I am not acting in accordance to God's will.  But, if I just turn my eyes....there He is.  Reminding me that no matter what, He paid the price, He loves me.  He is HERE.  With me.  Even with ME.  Though I don't deserve it.  He didn't expect me to deserve it.
I get to choose.  I'm going to choose to rejoice. 
blessings.
