Wow! What a different meaning that song takes on today!!
It’s 12:45 am and I’m shutting off the computer. I just finished the article I was working on for a national magazine. It’s the highest paying single piece I’ve done so far and comes with the opportunity for more.
I want more, more, more!
I should be tired..and I am…but I’m also so excited.
I have a busy day tomorrow. An author visit to students at Pinecrest followed by Cenla Women’s Connection luncheon, a few hours finishing up my testimony for Sunday service at Yeager Methodist Protestant Church in Monroe before covering Lagniappe Theatre Company’s dress rehearsal of Fiddler on the Roof tomorrow night for the newspaper.
My heart is full. Writing, speaking, fellowshipping, witnessing…there is only One who could’ve crafted such a life.
I didn’t want to be distracted tomorrow by a looming article deadline so I committed to staying up until I finished my piece. Thanks to my friend Susanna, who has been one step ahead of me since I was 13, I was able to get my article and photo folder uploaded via Google drive tonight.
I hope to have many more looming deadlines in my future!
Just a few months ago my heart was in so much pain I literally thought it might break. I didn’t see how things would ever be okay again.
I’m sitting here tonight and thinking for the second time this week that my heart is so full it feels like it could burst. I’ve never known such joy in my life.
It all started with surrendering my life, my will, my plans, my heart, and my mind to God. When I gave Him everything, He gave me back exceedingly more than I ever expected.
If you are lost or struggling right now, I pray that you see the message of hope here. It WILL get better. God is faithful.
