From my very first days I can see and be thankful for God’s
hand (Zeph. 3:17) on my life. He gave me a family that loved me and asked for
me through the process of adoption.
When I was alone, hurt, confused and a suffering child…he
was with me.
When I chose sin over God He waited and constantly called me
to come home, He sent angels to protect me. When I gave up and gave in to my
pain, He said NO. (PS.66.16) he gave me hope.
He came to me and spoke His love
into my heart and gave me a choice…Life or death. He allowed me to see glimpses
of what life could be and I chose LIFE!
God amazes me everyday with all that He knits into my life.
From using my most painful memories for His glory and my healing. He has knit into me a
burden to share my life so others can see that they are not alone and
can see, yes, there is more to life than the obvious pain, bitterness, abuse
and anger…. there is LOVE! His love really does cover it all!
God has blessed
me with the ability to love and to be loved. I wasn't always able to love others or myself, just ask my brother, Mark and my Parents. I now have a husband I could never
have dreamed up on my own and children that completely overflow my heart with
their ability to see with spiritual eyes, grow in knowing who they are and love abundantly.
He has knit in me a need, a burden, a passion to share who we
are in Christ with others; I don’t want anyone to grow up in darkness…
Everything in my life past, present and my future testifies
to me that I was created for His purpose, He has a plan for me and my life was
not a mistake. (Rom. 8:35-)
My life is the story of God’s audacious love for me. No rhyme, no
reason just the audacious gift of unconditional, unchallenged and unparalled
love.
This love is overflowing in us all it’s a choice whether we
overflow into others or just wastefully overflow.
