I grew up in church, knew all the Sunday School answers to the issues of life, and seemed to be the "perfect little church girl"...but I never really came to Christ until I was thirteen. At a church revival, I realized the person that I was becoming was not who I wanted to be...I realized was spiritually bankrupt and in need of a Savior.
The years since have been the ride of a lifetime. Ups and downs, twists and turns. Some chapters have been filled with heartache. Others with healing and joy. But God has been good. He has been faithful, continuing to shape me and mold me into the woman that he desires me to be.
God has really been working on my heart…and calling me to go and do things that I never would have imagined that He would. I have learned that I need to stop relying on the plans that I have for my own life. I can’t have it all planned out…God has bigger plans anyway. Over and over, I learn that I simply have got to get over myself and just let Him have the control. We’ll see what else he has up his sleeve for me. Good or bad, everything has it’s time. So as I wait, I will keep on praising him for the blessings, even if they are in raindrops, that he continues to pour out on my life.
Waiting,
