CHAPTER 38: If y’all only knew the storms I have weathered to get to this point in my life! I have learned many things in this time. The most important lesson life has taught me…no circumstance is permanent, nor is it too big for God. And God isn’t going to fix it. God has already equipped me with the tools necessary to weather these storms: strength, the power of perseverance, a magnitude of grace, a serving of mercy, and abilities I didn’t know existed. #HeAlreadyMadeAWay And then, because He is so great, He placed a village of amazing people in my life to pick me up when I have fallen, be my eyes and light when I can’t see through the clouds, hold the umbrella when I can’t find the strength to hold it myself, and help me find my footing when I am unstable after the storm. #BUTGOD It is HE who has gotten me here and I am so grateful and humbled!
So…what’s next? EVERYTHING!
I made a vow to myself in Chapter 37 that I’d work on being who I was called to be, and that’s not changing. What is changing, though, is that now I’m going to be listening more, even in my future storms. It is not easy to stop and listen when life seems to be handing out losses, but if I make a conscience effort to change the lenses on which I view those losses I will see Him. And as long as I can see Him, I can hear Him. #ChangingPerspective #MoreInFocus #SeekingHim #ISurrender #ImListening
So, here I sit…graceful, humble, and happy! And while I know it’ll start to rain soon, I’m focused on the sun that’s still shining. Chapter 38 is going to be phenomenal!
