Happy Birthday 07.09.00

Twelve years ago, I began my walk and commitment with Christ. It's funny how it can seem like such a long time ago and yet just like yesterday all at once. I am so thankful for the life I have been given. Twelve years ago, I was just starting high school and hopeful for what life would hold for me. I am grateful for all of the experiences I have had and for the growth I have made in my spiritual life.

Sunday's message was "follow your senses." And while the message came from 1 Samuel, a verse was referenced from 1 Corinthians that really hit home for me and our journey to you.

1 Corinthians 10:13
"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."

This was such a comforting verse for me. God will not give us a challenge that is too difficult for us to handle. He gives us challenges that He knows we can bear. So, as I continue my walk with Christ, I will continue walking with my head held high. I will continue forward knowing that He is holding our hand through this life. I will continue living my glorious life and this wonderful journey to you.
