Happy Birthday
I love that my birthday usually falls in the same week as thanksgiving!
My birthday and the week surrounding New Year are my favorite times to reflect…
look at all that God has done…
look how the road has turned and twisted this year
and the years past…
I can’t believe I’m 26, but also that I’m only 26
and I am loved
what more can I ask?
I am blessed with so many gifts
amazing parents, caring siblings I love to be around and laugh with (we’re goofy), great friends, a good job and then all the other gifts of a new day, a cup of coffee, paint, an easel, my mind, a pen, blank paper… the beautiful tree outside my window currently displaying vibrant red, orange and yellow…
so I take a minute to sit on my bed as I type with a smile…
Thank you my Lord and Savior -
my Healer
my Good Shepherd,
I am your lamb
your child
your Beloved
a part of your Church, your Bride…
broken and restored
weak but strong
alive in your love.
