This weekend has been amazing.
Things just have been falling into place and been being really, honestly sort of like a dream.
I got to be with my best friend all day Saturday,I got the most amazing, beautiful wonderful dress for Winter ball, THANK YOU Grandma:), movie night with Kell and My baby sister,shoe shopping, getting lost in Morgan hill, driving on the wrong side of the road, yelling at stupid cars and screaming at the top of my lungs with Shae, Visiting family- which never gets old, getting another gift from my Auntie, amazing worship and time of fellowship at church.
This weekend has also been hard though. Tough to say the least.
I have been reminded so much this weekend that God does give you hard situations.
Heck, He gives you situations that make you break and fall to your knees.
But in that moment, when everything else fades away and its just you and God, in that instance, you see God's love.
Because, you're not broken.
Well, you are, but who you are made whole in-
He is not broken.
God has been chasing after my wild heart for 17 years.
I've been obedient sometimes, but most of the time i would rather just try things my own way.
How amazing is it that we serve a God who does not change.
He is faithful when we are faithless.
Throughout the past few years i have come across people who don't like me, shocking- i know.
But today i really let one of them get to me. They consumed my thoughts. Changed my smile and hurt my heart.
Like a sickness bitterness spreads so quickly.
On my drive home i just started praying. Then quickly called my dear older sister, Aubrey.
Man does this girl shine so bright for Christ.
She reassured me that high school will end and that God is here through everything. She warned me though, that i need to act in a way that is pleasing to God. "dont let anyone say anything negative about you that is not true".
As i walked inside the house i looked into my arms; a brand new dress, high heels and Toms. WHAT do i have to complain about.
Each of the items reminded me of something.
Love- the dress.
Friendship and restoration- The heels.
Kindness when i don't deserve it- The Toms.
God has seriously blessed me with amazing people in my life. Yes, there are people who i would rather not be in the same room with- but at the end of my day who do i want to focus on?
That ONE person or the multiple people God has placed in my life to love me.
This weekend has been amazing.
