504 Gateway Time-out

I am a young woman living for Christ every day, discovering all the awesome ways he seeks to redeem my life. Favorite things include: watching movies, teaching children, pursuing graphic design, and spending time with great people ♥

Hear, hear, my friend! My 20’s were similar. Funny how each season, when surrendered, gives strength to the next. Living like you are not in control is reality, and the sooner I realize that in the dailies, the better off I am, and those around me! Happy Birthday 🎁🎂🎈. The best is yet to be but today is pretty grand❤️

Yes, today is grand! And I will appreciate it better by focusing on vow #1. I do feel like I have plenty of strength now to carry me onward and upward! Thanks for the birthday wishes.

Well first things first – Happy Birthday!! This post took me back to my twenties and I remember 25 and it being the absolute worst birthday ever; then and still. I remember thinking my life was not where I thought it should be. Namely married and ready to pop out my first child. But there was no man at the time and I didn’t have any children for a long 10 years. I wish I had made vow #5 back then. Little did I know God was orchestrating my life behind the scenes without my awareness. Protecting me and readying me for the life He designed just for me!

Your thoughts have pretty much encompassed what I thought from ages 20-25. But there really was a lot inside of me God had to deal with. Had he given me my desires–a husband, our own home and a terrific career–the issues in me never would have been dealt with, and I would have still been miserable with all the things I wanted anyway.
I’m learning not to want things just because others have them, but to accept uniqueness because it doesn’t come along often. Thanks for the birthday wishes!
