Mighty Miracles

This is going to be a very vague blog but just know, there is an explaination for everything. Some of you should just break down, email me and ask!!

Things have changed so much in the past month. For one, my feet are healing fairly quickly. They went from OUCH to oooooooo to black and crusty to now they are peeled apart and a nice healthy purple. Smooth as a babies' butt. (I know, I have a baby)

It just seems that as things come up that are obsticles, God comes back with an answer just as fast. Sometimes, the answer comes before the obsticle. Isn't He great?

I have learned to wait. I hate waiting. Well, I used to hate waiting, now I just am not so fond of it. There are things that will come in time that are needed for forward motion in my life. There are things that need to happen to better other areas of life and there are things that are happening I didn't feel would happen. Isn't life so exciting?

I have learned so much in the past month. I have grown so much. I have become so much and I have to say this: I LIKE ME!! I like being me. I like who I am. If you were me, I would like you. I would want to spend time with you. (not too much cause I would probably get on my nerves - insert laugh)

Change is not always bad. Standing on ones' own two feet is good. Never sell your morals, never sell yourself and give up who you are for another person's happiness. You are not responsible for another person's happiness.

Pain may come in the night, but joy comes in the morning. How true. I enjoy each new day. I like watching the sunrise. I look forward to what each new day has in stall for me. I wake refreshed, feeling alive and remarkably - full of hunger.

I have delved into my new Bible the size large enough to choke a mule but full of so much extra stuff that it satisfies me. I learn. I grow. I become.

Since I made the serious changes in my life I have found these gifts so far returned:
1rst came Peace
2nd came Joy
3rd came Hope
then Strength
and now Faith

Peace - no matter what my circumstances, I have peace. It's uncomprehensible. Doesn't matter what I'm going through, who's in my face saying what, what obsticle I have to face. I am no longer a nervous wreck. I am no longer worring. I sleep at night. Something I haven't done in well over a year. I eat now, for I have an appetite. (it's beginng to show as well) I know all is well and taken care of.

Joy - this is much stroner than happiness. This is when you can be in the storm and still be happy. You can be sad about something but still have joy. It puts a smile on your face in the midst of adversity.

Hope - Oh dispair is gone! GONE I SAY! There is hope. Hope for tomorrow. Hope for another day. Hope for things longed for. Things money just can't buy.

Strength - How nice to have this returned. It came along with wisdom and direction. I'm not afraid anymore. I'm not so self-consciencous. I'm not unsure of myself, of if I can handle things. I don't doubt. I feel 10 feet tall and able!

Faith - Here was evidence of a change in me. I believe. I hold onto what I believe with all my strength. If I could wrap my arms and legs around it, I would.
Faith is the evidence of things unseen and hope for things longed for. Oh the promises I'm holding onto. Let it rain!!!

If I could bottle what I feel, if I could pass on what I know and experience, the line that would be at my door. Just know, there are mighy miracles happening in my life. I'm drinking from my saucer cause my cup is running over.
