just do it.

How does one even being to cover the radical changes that have taken place since the last post?

Basically ... if you know me, you know the changes that have taken place. Therefore - I will not go in to great detail. Suffice it to say, my life is nowhere that I planned it to be or even thought it would be this time last year. Not even in the freaking ballpark. However, that's the funny thing about our plans.

They don't matter.

Having grown up in faith, I've frequently heard people mention the Lord's timing .. the Lord's plans ... the Lord's all-knowing wisdom. And now I can tell you, I've completely experienced it. His timing was not mine. His plans were not what I had planned. But, His plans are greater than I could ever plan for myself. And that simply has to be enough for me. I can tell you that this verse has been indelibly stamped onto my busted heart...

"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord.  "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." - Jeremiah 29:11

So, here's to moving onward and upward. I have wonderful family ... beautiful friends ... and the free-flowing grace of my Savior. What else could a girl possibly need?
