Today is exactly one year after a moment that would change the course of my life dramatically.
It was August 22nd, 2014, the day before my 30th birthday. God shot me through the heart and turned my world upside-down. It’s hard to believe all that’s happened in just one year.
I don’t remember where I had expected to be at this point in time, but it certainly wasn’t here. Not physically, not professionally, not emotionally.
But God had better plans.
He used these past 12 months to break me, to break down those walls I had been carefully and determinedly building my whole life. He cut down the thorns that had been choking me from the inside. He gently pried my fingers off every painful memory that I’d insisted on burdening myself with.
It’s been one leap of faith after another, and He’s been faithful to catch me every step of the way.
I’m not where I expected to be, and there’s still so much uncertainty in the future…but I can rest knowing that my Heavenly Father is in control, and that He loves me and only wants what’s best for me.
I have a world of possibilities ahead. 30 has been the best year of my life…and it’s only going to get better.
