Wow!
I cannot begin to write about the past two weeks. The week I was on vacation and the week I was home with a back injury. For whatever reason; you wanted me to be still.
Thank you for the AMAZING Cruise to Alaska. YOU are indeed the Great I Am.
It was incredible to say the least.
Thank you for the beautiful friendships and the overwhelming love that was shown to me. I still wonder about my presence in the company of others and what it is that draws them near to me. I guess they see in me the person you created and not the person I often see myself as. We can be our worst critics though.
This was my birthday reminder...
and when I returned back to my normal life...this was supposed to be my wake up for work reminder. Lol
Father, I love you and not because you allowed me to go to Alaska for my birthday.
I love you because you first loved me and I didn't have to change one single thing about myself to receive your love. However, over time, I developed a deep longing to please you and with that came the change that you now see.
Lamentations 3:22-26
Because of the Lord's GREAT LOVE we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The Lord is MY PORTION; therefore I will wait for him." The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.
That, my Lord, is my heart's desire: to wait patiently and silently for you.
Eternally yours
