This blog is dedicated to the beautiful changes I've embraced through trust & faith.
The past 2 months have been such an incredible learning/growing experience. "No matter how deep our darkness, He is deeper still" (Corrie ten Boom) -- I believe whole heartedly that God speaks the loudest in our sufferings, and sometimes that's exactly what it takes to break bad habbits, change thought processes, and help us grow stronger & wiser. I recently went back and read some of my old journal & prayer entries & I got chills at how deep my spritual warfare had become during those times. The path of my own destruction defeated me for a while and I let the struggles become greater than my strength-- I turned to myself, friends, family, loved ones, for answers (and sometimes blame) when the first place I should have turned was God. I am enjoying life in such a different light-- and he was right there all along. I want to say thank you to those who have seen me through in the hard times and offered so much love. Through that perserverance and support, combined with struggle, I love who I am now; this is the first time in my entire life that I can actually say with complete confidence-- I love Me. The journey of life is so precious and beautiful. Life is a new adventure every day and each new morning presents itself with the freedom of choice-- Today I choose to love deeper & see the glass as half full and never half empty. I can't wait to see what God has in store for the future.
...Appreciate today as if tomorrow will never come.
