Today, while browsing through some blogger's love stories, I got to thinking of the person I am today and how I got here... {and of course day dreaming of how God will put my future in the path of this road He is leading me on...how it will all unfold. I can't wait to look back and smile.}
Come sit with me, let's talk. Grab your coffee...or Dr. Pepper. Whatever your heart desires.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's been 8 months since 'that awful breakup'. I got shoved into the dirt with a broken heart and left behind.
Philippianes 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ/Him who strengthens me."
STRENGTH. It was given to me by my Father and is what got me through. He held my hand and pulled me up from the ground. He wiped away my tears and stitched my heart back together.
I didn't go into depression. I didn't cry endless nights. I didn't hide from the world.
My life went the completely opposite direction.
That strength led me to be the woman I am today.
I stood up for myself. I ended friendships and gained a couple others. I stopped putting up with people's crap. I have slowly put myself out there. I went after my dream. I am about to graduate college! A goal I thought would never be accomplished. I finally adopted a pup. I have lived my single life fully and have embraced it. My heart is full again.
I am FINALLY happy.
STRENGTH.
A blessing from Above.

Just stumbled upon your blog. Love it. I just went through the same thing. Ended a relationship, finished school and really learned how to put it all in His hands. Awesome feeling, isn't it? Blessing from Above is right!!
