Thanksgiving

It's funny, how I am so blessed, yet I forget to thank God for the things I have.  For instance, just this weekend I was able to wake up, put on nice clothes, drive a nice car over to my amazing friends house to indulge in some amazing cinnamon rolls for breakfast.  Then, I was able to drive in my air conditioned car to the outlets in Gaffney and meet my wonderful Mom.   While shopping, my Mom bought for me two new outfits and took me out to lunch and dinner.  During our shopping time, I walked around in good shoes and called and text a few of my friends on my "Smart" phone.  Sitting and contemplating on those things I have, makes me realize that I am so wealthy.

According to America, I may not be wealthy because I don't make tons of money.  However, in comparison to the rest of the world I am so rich in not only materialistic things, but in personal things as well.  I am thankful for these things.  I pray that I will honor God in the things that he has given to me.

In lue of Thanksgiving, I am thankful for God, friends, family and the fleeting possessions that God has given me to give away.

In the Beginning

In the beginning, God created the heavens, the earth, the water, the sky, the plants, the sun, the moon, the stars, the animals and then man.  Crazy huh?  I wonder what it was like breathing Earth into existence.    It's so beautiful that our creator created us.  Here I am, thousands of years latter typing on my Computer, and in the moment that God had created the heavens and the Earth, he had me in mind.  He had me in mind to complete part of his long story.  I know that God will never need me, but it's awesome to think that he wants me to be a part of the "bigger" story.


I hope to do crazy thing for God in my life.  I don't know what those things are, but I'm looking forward to completing those crazy thing with my soon to be partner in life aka crime, Michael!  However, as for right now, I'm in a pretty cool position as a unmarried woman to do some neat things for God in the city I am in.  I have a little over eight months in this city of Rock Hill, SC, and I can't wait to look back to see what God does.
