Craziness


life...is...crazy

As I sit here and think about all of the conversations I have had with the people in my life this week, I have reasons to cry and reasons to be ESTATICally HaPPy!!!  Sorry, you'll have to wait for the real details of the HaPPy part...I know and God knows...that's the most important thing.  Finding the good in things and people has always been a strength of mine, except of course when it pertains to me directly...crazy, but true. God has shown up in my life once again and I know that HE is guiding me through this journey; yet, as the day gradually goes on, I feel HIM nudging me to get back on HIS path...I surrender almost immediately (yes, ALMOST...you know...)OK God, but can you wait just one sec??? He doesn't...with me...I figure it's okay though, because HIS plan for my life is still better than any I can come up with on my own. 

My baby boy is getting baptized tomorrow! Super excited about that!  Tomorrow is also my grandmother's 91st birthday and Father's Day. 

I try to listen to music based on my mood and try to find something encouraging...pertinent to what's going on in my life that day...For the purpose of this blog, I want to find a different video for each day I post that means something to me and praying it will encourage you as well.  God is awesome and He is definitely worth praising...even in the storms we face in life...I know, I'm in the middle of one, but I am choosing to look at the rainbow after the storm rather than the storm clouds...

In His Grip~

Possibilities...it's a dot thing...

June 14, 2012



Sometimes it's really just a matter of time before you realize that the one thing that was constant in your life isn't any longer...Sometimes you have to understand that not every one is going to judge you based on your past mistakes...Once that is realized and forgiving yourself happens, anything is possible...
It's been a tough 24 hours...hearing the hurts all over again...but God revealed something to me...and it's really going to be okay.  I've managed to really smile again...at least for a little bit...with the help of a possibility...I'm not looking...but I know God's watching over me.  It took yet another chat with a wonderful lady who I have made my adopted mother to make me realize that God truly uses all sorts of people...
Interesting....yeah, dots are fun...♥

Changed

Changed....Well, God's working on me...



I feel God working on me and slowly changing my perception on a few things, but sometimes I wonder where He's going with it.  People have told me that they see a change in me and a very close wonderful friend told me that in recent picture she could see a light in my eyes that she hadn't noticed before. She also said that God shines through us at our darkest moments...NO one has ever told me that I shined before..That same friend told me that all of this that I'm going through was like a diamond...the torture a diamond goes through before it is a beautiful jewel...Interesting analogy.  He is definitely working in my life, changing me to seek HIM first. After all, that's what I'm supposed to do anyway.  :)
