Blessed

I am so blessed. I've been thinking about that a lot lately. These past few months have tested me beyond what I thought I was capable of facing. I wouldn't have been able to get through them if I didn't have the lover of my heart, Jesus, with me every step of the way. It is wonderful to have the reassurance of His arms around me on those nights when my heart is breaking and He lets me cry healing tears until I fall asleep.
I stood in our new office last week and my heart swelled with joy because everything is so worth it when I think about where God has placed me. All I can ever remember growing up is wanting to "change the world." I think about that now and wonder if that was just a silly thought to have. I have come to realize that only Jesus can change the world and as I get to watch Him move and breathe in the land, my heart bursts with so much love for my Savior. In Him anything is truly possible. I hold to His promises and I am strengthened knowing that His words never fail. No matter what roads I face, my faith in Him won't faulter. I don't doubt Him. That is not even an issue with me.
Today, don't allow yourself to lose faith in God or doubt Him. He always comes through somehow. Most of the time He answers in ways we never expected. I am at a point in my life where I am dropping off the "complicated" and I am simply surrendering to the knowledge that my Best Friend, Lover, Healer, Savior, King, Lord, Master, God, and so much more, has never left me or forsaken me and He never will.
Yes, I am truly blessed. Thank you, Jesus!
