Thankful!!

    Now on a more serious note, I want to express how grateful to God for allowing me to go through surgery with no complications. My mind went back to the day of surgery and how my family was there with me the entire day and not once did they complain! I remember waking up from surgery looking at the clock in shock because it was 6 p.m. and all I could think about was my family. I asked the nurse was the clock right, I was so concerned about my family waiting all that time. The nurse kept telling me "don't worry about that I am sure they’re not thinking about that". Here I was connected to wires, IV's, and other foreign objects but my heart was focused on my family! Even while writing this there is a "Thankful" spirit that comes over me because there are so many people that have no family and no support.

My whole life has been full of "more than enough"! It has taken me my entire life to realize that I have always had more than enough love, support, and material things. Only God can make this happen. When I tell people this they think you’re just spoiled or lucky and I beg to differ it is none of those things it is God almighty that has blessed me!!! From birth God has had his hand on my life and I got enough sense to know that. My mother told me that when she was carrying me she knew that I was going to be a "light to the world offering many gifts and talents". So of course my mind went to Psalms 139:13-14 (NIV) – For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made: your works are wonderful, I know that full well! 

God is so AMAZING he already designed my destiny so therefore my results for failure are impossible. But of course, I must stay on the path that he has designed for me and learn the lessons that come with remaining successful. I heard someone say "we all have a closets some fuller than others but it is up to you what you want to do with what’s in it". My path has been rocky, bumpy, and scary. Been through a lot of defeat, hurt and rejection but through all of that I have RECOVERED!!!

Till next time!
