Timing..

His perfect timing!! It blows my mind. All i can say is that right now, this time in my life is great. Blessed. that is a good word to describe it. I don't deserve any of what I have been given, but I know that God blesses us because He loves us. And He wants us to embrace the time we have hear and enjoy life in abundance, expecting great things..things that we can't even imagine..because that is who He is ( well only part of who He is) He is a God who I cannot begin to fathom or understand because the human mind is finite and out Creator is infinite!!

I have the greatest friends..girls and guys!! I can count on them for anything: a laugh, a hug, a shoulder to cry on and an ear to listen, advice when i need it, encouragement, love.. i could go on and on...some awesome people who love the Lord and know how to have a good time bringing glory to his Name.

Do you ever wonder why God brings certain people into your life?? I do..I have some friends who were a huge part of my life.. i may not talk to them anymore but they were a huge part of my life at one point..God had a plan there i know it. And i have friends today that have been so dear to me for years and we are still as close as ever even though we live miles and states apart. If there is one thing i've learned, it is that the Holy Spirit creates a fellowship and an intimacy between friends that is so necessary to this life we live hear on earth..I am thankful for the intimacy i share with my friends. God keeps bringing new people into my life and I do wonder..i wonder what He has in store for these friendships..how we will be there for each other and who we will become to one another..Have you ever met someone and they just shine with his love..there is a peace a calmness a joy a serenity..a smile that wont go away..i know His hand is in control here and I dont want my hands in any of it.. i have learned that when i try to control things, all it does is taint a situation that I need to allow God to make perfect in his perfect timing and his perfect will for my life. For all my friends new and old.. I love you all!! and you are in my prayers...

Back to timing..I am enjoying this time in my life..24..a good number..and no i dont think 25 is old so i am not scared to go there..haha..some of my best friends are 25..does that make you more wise..haha..whatever..well I am just living in the here and now, knowing that i am not promised another day. I am soaking up the joys that God is continually filling me with..his promises are real and true..he is merciful..his grace is so undeserved..I am just waiting for him to move me along during this life He has blessed me with..allowing me new breath each morning to sing praises to his Holy Name..
