Supernatural Year
Something got me last night. I don't know why, but it just did. I was listening to Joel Osteen's podcast and he said something that got to me. He said that despite what circumstances may look like right now, you can have a supernatural year. Now this is nothing new for me to hear, but I guess this time it hit me more so because I have been thinking about our economy and all the layoffs and thinking about all the people who are out of work.(To much news can really get to you!) I've been seeking out what God wants for my life and how he wants to fulfil it. There are things that I have in me now that a couple of years ago I don't think I could handle. Things that took time and effort to remember. Now here I am 29 years old and thinking about things that I wanted so bad when I was only like 20 or 21 and thinking "I'm so glad God didn't give me that back then!" Things like my job and where I am spiritually. I mean, it's awesome that I can be a woman of faith and still recognize when I've screwed up and not think that I'm a failure because I did! Other things like thinking on the line of marriage. I think I'm closer to being ready now, but when I was younger I REALLY wanted to get married and it was something that really consumed me. I wasn't content and thinking that something was wrong with me. Now I look back and think about how I'm glad I didn't get married then. Think about how me as an individual would not be where I am today. I'm content with being single in this moment. I know that there is someone out there for me and that we will meet in God's timing. Do I think about it? Yea I do, but I'm okay with how it is at this very moment. In my mind, I think that this is how I'm going to get a supernatural year is being content in who I am, changing the things that need to be changed, and being blessed even in the midst of bad circumstances. I truly believe that!
