In the warm, radiant, beautiful summer vacation of
2011, as I watched my 1 year old daughter play happily on the grass, I knew God
was speaking to me telling me to do what my heart desired and that He had plans
for me.
My daughter will only have a glimpse, but I doubt will ever truly know the impact this picture has on me. I cry even as I write this to have gone so much emotional confusion and pain and be lifted up to an unknown greater and overwhelming height of letting go and letting God through this beautiful being that was barely walking.
I felt calm. I knew what I wanted to be.
I wanted to be a wife and a mom all day everyday. The
journey that I am now begins on that liberating day. It’s not easy, but I am free.
No matter what comes your way, God is not surprised. Your challenge was not sent to defeat you; it was sent to increase you. -Joel Osteen
