Abundance

Went to a women's Bible study this morning with a few neighbors and really enjoyed talking with the ladies there. We heard a speaker talk on abundance, specifically, experiencing an abundant life in God. At the end of the session we were asked a few questions; one being "Abundance really means pouring out honor, praise, and worship in spite of a difficult circumstance. Can you share about a recent season of abundance in your life?"
First thing that came to mind was my current situation and the difficult circumstance it is. Next thought was how I had just received a reminder to force my focus on "abundance" instead of on "woe is me". 



This is my little reminder:

 My Beautiful friend Carly Cross strategically sent this wonderful card with a love note of encouragement. Even more amazing- she sent it in perfect timing for me to receive it the morning David left for training. What a precious friend I have in her, and what a great reminder! 
I WILL rejoice because I choose to. 
I will acknowledge that this (crazy & difficult) day is one that the Lord has made and I can be glad. Everything He makes is good- why would this day be any different?

Women of faith are irreplaceable to have in your circle.

  1. Love God-moments like you're experiencing, and I'm so proud of you for your attitude:-) I can attest to the necessity and blessing of rejoicing in Him no matter what! True transformation. So glad you had a Bible study to go to, too. Missing you and sending love,
