Every woman has some sort of fantasy where she ends up with the fairytale ending of happily ever after. I want to be happy, don't you? Why should we feel bad for doing something we enjoy so much, doing whatever means it takes to be happy, and how can we be content with ourselves no matter the circumstances? I hear comments like this all the time. I think to myself: God is the very essence of what we need, He is the handsome prince at the end of our book. He saves us from our own destruction, our nightmares, our fears and struggles. He gives us the hope we need to keep going. People may say: “Well, WHY would God do this? What did I do to deserve this? God is NOT fair!” Here's some breaking news, this world is not fair, if God was fair we would all be burnt into little pieces right now. An old boyfriend once sent me this text that read: “I was hoping to see u today.” I thought how sweet, someone enjoys my presence every day! We were seeing each other on a daily basis and that particular day I was running from job to job and absolutely exhausted. At that moment in time I believed I could not possibly fit him into my schedule. Here's some vital information: God wants us that way, he longs for us to sit with him, drink from the cup in his hand so that we might melt in his peace. His desire is that we be overwhelmed with his deep love knowing it is more than we can stand and "YES," to feel this presence everyday.  To lay back against him and breath, feel his heartbeat. Be completely consumed by him. This might be so that when we finally learn to grasp the mere thought(idea) that when we are with Him, we can handle any situation that comes our way.

This is an excerpt from a book I'm currently working on:

"How refreshing the love of our Father that entitles us to freedom, He lavishes His beauty upon us.  He gives us strength when we run empty.  Look around and see love, when there is an opportunity to love…..do it.  Don’t look back at how you’ve been assaulted and scarred, give this life you been gifted a chance to redeem His glory.  Because when He shines on you, it is amazing!  And, you will never see anything the same.  It just takes one time to meet Jesus and at that moment we will be changed forever.  We must continue through this life, through the hard times as well as the good, yet knowing He is here….with us.  Finding Him gives me strength and the courage to face the trials I must overcome.  It only takes one moment, no matter who you are, where you’ve been, or what you’ve seen or done, He loves us.  He is our destiny, the nourishment our souls long for.  I ran away from him and ignored his compassion.  I made choices to push me farther away from his grace, yet he remained, waiting for me to truly experience the vastness of his love.  Nothing makes me more ecstatic than sharing my story because it ends with Him, my beloved.  My God has held me and not hidden his face from me.  In him I am secure and not forgotten.  Look for him, you will find him, and understand when he holds you…..that nothing else matters."

-It will eventually make sense, until then enjoy the pieces I share in the meantime.
