Post-Thanksgiving Musings
Here I am. The day after Thanksgiving. It has been an awesome holiday. I LOVE Thanksgiving. It is my favorite holiday, even over my birthday.
But it always seems to be the hardest part of my life. I always seem to be going through a hard time during Thanksgiving.
Yesterday we all went around and said things we were thankful for. I said that I'm learning to be thankful for the breaking process, and to see that out of it comes hope. I am being broken daily by God. He is teaching me to rely on Him and not on myself or my family or my circumstances. It is a very hard lesson to learn and a lot of times I feel like I'm taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back. But out of my situations I'm learning to see and find hope. God is my hope. Jesus is the reason that, even though it may be a hard day, I have hope.
It may seem that I am down, but today I've felt really good. I found out that I'm addicted to Guitar Hero. I LOVE THAT GAME!!!! And I NEVER play video games. My brothers don't know what to do with me.
Anyways, back to what I was saying earlier... There are so many things that I am thankful for. My family, My friends, Even Belmont. But I am thankful for God and the gift that he gave me. There is one senior picture that I loved cause it encompassed my life and my feelings at the time. The picture is so joyful and full of hope to me. That I look at it now and pray and look forward to the day when I can fully feel like my picture again. But you know what.... I can. Right now. Thanks to Jesus.
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. And to you Belmont people... COME BACK!!! I miss y'all...lol
