Wow! I feel so completely blessed right now! Even for the things that are SO hard to deal with and that hurt so much.. I'm thankful! I love Christmas! A couple months ago I wasn't too excited just because of everything going on.... No money, my aunt being sick, my head killing me every day, haha I just wasn't the most excited about it. Now that its here though.... God has BLESSED me with things that I never thought would ever happen! Like, us being able to get a Christmas tree and being able to go caroling at the old people hospital on Christmas eve! On top of everything that God has given me this season, He has given me Jesus!!!!! WHAT an awesome gift!!! He has given me so much grace to see how Jesus is ALL I need!! I am so content in Him! He makes joy FULL and life amazing!!! I remember last month I was learning how to be content when I have no one else to talk to, and since then He has made my adoration for Him grow!! I truly know that I need nothing else to live! Don't get me wrong though.. I LOVE all of the amazing people God has put in my life! I am so thankful for everyone! Its so cool how just random people that talk to me help me to grow stronger in my walk with God! I pray that I can be a blessing to others and serve and shine like some amazing people that have been a blessing to me, and ultimately for Jesus! So yeah, I'm pretty stoked now. haha It's such a blessing when the space underneath your Christmas tree is being filled up with gifts from friends! If I didnt have God I definitely would not be happy right now. He seriously gives you like.. haha I don't know.. some kind of special glasses where when you put them on you see things in a way you could never think of on your own! It's His eyes! Through them everything is beautiful.
I feel so ready for whatever God is going to bring me to... haha anywayyyyyssssss, I always get so distracted when I start to write everything out! I'm just amped about everything! haha and I can tell you that Christmas is definitely going to be a day dedicated to giving God praise! A SAVIOR has been born! hallelujah!!! Jesus rocks my socks off! He came to earth.. He came to earth!! He lived a perfect life, was rejected and misunderstood, and then died for our sins... cause there is NO WAY we can be righteous before God on our own. Thank YOU God for sending Your son to earth! Thank You Jesus for leaving Your home so that I can one day live there with You!!
If maybe you didn't pick it up from all that, I am so happy right now. haha
I pray that anyone who reads this is stoked about salvation, and stoked that God has chosen then to live for Jesus! haha this is totally the life. <3
Merry Christmas!
God bless, valerie
