today is one of those days when truth rains down. sometimes it feels painful, but I trust that God's purposes in the present come from a loving hand. today I am acknowledging that God has created me with a human need for love, community, encouragement, commitment, and faithfulness. and I am exceedingly thankful for those friends He has placed in my life which provide me with a sufficiency in the present. so today, february 15th, I am thanking Him for the gift of singleness. my contentment rests not in the changing of circumstances, but the acceptance of them. I am so thankful for this two year journey the Father has lead me on, what a blessing to be set apart for His growth in my heart and life.
a special thanks to my mom, who has proven to be the friend of a lifetime.
