Project 31- Day 2






She Breathes Deeply




Day 2.  What makes you uniquely you?


This is a hard one. What makes me, me???  ME and the LORD!!  Lol. 

I think I am different than most people because of my brain and my heart.  As you probably know from my blog, I overthink. Everything.  And honestly 90% I do love this about myself though that other 10% about drives me insane, but hey it gives me something great to blog about normally!! Lol. 

The other part is my heart.  I love whole heartedly so I am easily hurt.  I forgive people I probably should and remain friends even after being betrayed.  I am opened minded enough to be friends with just about everyone, even ex’s, ex’s ex’s or even current bf’s ex’s.  I can’t just love a little. I love a lot.  

God made us all special and it takes a big heart, an open mind, and wide eyes to be able to see it all.  I like to think I have all 3.

HHHmmmm… what does beauty mean to me?!

Beauty is a flower swaying in the breeze.
Beauty is a child running up just to say “I love you mommy”
Beauty is a friend always being there just when you need them to be.
Beauty is a truth and honesty.
Beauty is a warm bubble bath, a good book, and a glass of wine.
Beauty is a kind, loving personality.
Beauty is being faithful, whole heart and soul.
Beauty is praying.
Beauty is storm clouds rolling in.
Beauty is a dog licking your cheek.
Beauty is a skinned knee and being there to kiss it and make it all better.
Beauty is snuggling up with my kiddos and watching a great movie
Beauty is sitting on the couch with my kiddos reading the bible.
Beauty is the first kiss.
Beauty is the last kiss.
Beauty is realizing that God made everything beautiful.
Beauty is seeing that beauty in everything.
Beauty is being hurt and lonely.
Beauty is knowing that God is always with you, even when you are hurt and lonely.
Beauty is knowing that God knew us before we were even conceived.
Beauty is love.
Beauty is life.
Beauty is more than what we see but what we feel and who we are.
Beauty is loving the Lord.

Closer

I have so many thoughts running through my head today… well actually the last few days.   I have been talking to a new friend about our walks with Christ and its just been wonderful. I feel like I am closer to the Lord.  I feel like I am more intune with him right now.  Its crazy.  I am so happy and so in love with the Lord. Just thinking about it, makes my heart skip a beat!! 

This morning I woke up around 3am when my daughter had to go potty. I remember looking at the clock thinking man its too early… I just want to go back to sleep, but maybe I’ll get up with my alarm and read the bible. I haven’t done that in awhile. I clearly heard the Lord tell me that he would help me.   I laid down and slept till my alarm went off at 630. I hit the snooze and laid back down. Just 5 more minutes. I clearly heard the Lord say I’ll wake you at 7am… and don’t ya know, my alarm didn’t go off again till 7am!!  As much as I wanted to hit snooze and go back to sleep ever for just 5 minutes more, I knew I needed to get up and do what I said I would.  And so I did. I read Malachi. I  wanted to stop before I was finished reading because it was getting late and I didn’t want my son to miss the bus, but again I heard the Lord tell me it will be ok. So I finished reading and rushed to get myself and the kids ready. We walked out the door after the normal time to catch the bus… we got to the bus stop and still had enough time to say our morning prayers before the bus showed up. The Lord did as he promised… It was ok.

Not everyday goes this good. Not everyday to I hear the Lord whispering in my ear. And those are the days that I struggle. 
I pray that my ears and my heart will continue to open to hear the Lord.

I am finishing up The Shack. It has been such a great. I definitely recommend reading it to help get a different and better grasp on God.  
I also picked up Lecrae- Rehab: The Overdose. I love Lecrae. I love Rehab so I had to have Overdose… I still love Rehab more… but Overdose is great!!  J

Amiyha

January 19. My sister’s daughter’s birthday.  She would be 7.  4 ½ years ago her life came to a sudden halt and she went to spend eternity with the Lord.   

My sister isn’t my sister by blood or by marriage but by love.  I came into the family almost 5 years ago.  My daughter’s father and I had been dating for a few months and I was pregnant with his daughter. His family lived down in North Carolina and I had been down there once and met his 2nd oldest daughter, his mom, step dad, brother and niece and nephews.  Amiyah was only 2 years old. The whole time I was there, she wanted me to carry her.  I was very happy to.  The visit was short and we soon had to return home.  A few months down the road, on a Friday night in August, we received a phone call from my ex’s mom.  He didn’t want to answer but after the 2nd time she called, I made him pick up the phone.  I’m glad I did.  His niece had passed away. She was shot in the head.  My heart broke.  And even as I write this now, I am in tears.  I am not going to get into the whole story today but it was tragedy what will forever affect this family. 
As soon as we got that phone call, we started making plans to go down to N.C. The next morning we were on the road. Dropped my son off with my mom because I really didn’t think this would be good for him- he was 4.  On our way down there, I decided that I was going to name this baby girl that was growing in my belly after our niece.  Her middle name is Amiyah.   
Because of this event, there is a special bond between my sister and me. Even though my ex and I have gone our separate way, I still consider her family.
My heart goes out to her and her son’s today along with the entire family down in North Carolina.  They all are in my thoughts and prayers today.
