Sorry guys, I’ve been a little MIA from posting lately. Life has been full my journey with God, working on getting better, things I'm excited about I choose not to share, and just taking everything one day at a time. There’s been so much going on, and even though it’s been a lot, I’m beyond grateful for it all.
I had an okay birthday this year. This flare has been a long and rough one, and it really knocked me down, but my daughter and family made the day so special. Even in pain, I’m thankful for life, for every positive and like-minded person that God has placed around me. I’m amazed by the peace I have now a peace I never knew before walking closely with Him.
I pray for those who thrive in lies or drama, because all I can do is lift them up. I don’t fight evil with evil; I simply pray that they find their way to Jesus.
Tonight was one of those moments that fills your heart to the brim. We gave my granddaughter one of her birthday presents not on her actual birthday, but that doesn’t matter. What matters is her joy. As I sat down to do my nightly Bible study, she came in beside me, drawing and writing “I love Jesus.” My heart melted. I would never pressure her or any child into faith, but hearing her say, “Of course I do, who wouldn’t?” and then run to tell her mom and uncle it was pure light.
Obviously, she’ll make her own choices when she’s older, but I pray over my whole family and always will. I pray for my grandchildren, for those who love us, and even for those who don’t. Prayer is powerful, and I believe the world would be a better place if everyone woke up wanting a relationship with Jesus.
when you truly open your heart to Him, your life changes in the most beautiful ways. I’m definitely a different person now more loving, patient, understanding, and full of peace. I share His word everywhere I can, in every way I can, and always will.
I’m so blessed for my faith, my family, and for the peace that only comes from Him.
