The rest is still unwritten...

I completely forgot that I created this blog a few years ago and never posted in it.  I have to laugh at the background being a bird, because it completely lines up with the things that have been prophesied over my life after I created this page.  I remember multiple people speaking of a caged bird and how the door was open but the bird (me) was afraid to be bold and fly out.  I find it so amazing how God works and how He helps me to understand things spoken to me even if not right away, it still makes sense eventually.
I remember when I created this page, I was at a very hard time in  my life.  I had no idea where to go, or where God would lead, but He definitely led me to some places and I have enjoyed this journey!  I've learned so much about myself and that is something that no one can ever take away from me.  I've learned that boldness is not easy for me to have, but in Christ, it happens, and it is the best feeling. Every single moment, good and bad has led up to this very moment, and while it may be a time of "rest" or not knowing where to go, I'm where I'm supposed to be.  The best is yet to come!!
Over the past few years I witnessed what God can do when we truly believe.  My twin sister believed with everything in her she was going to have a baby, and that baby is now 18 months old and she has another one on the way.  I got to see what happens when I stopped letting fear take over and stepped out to sing.  I had the opportunity to be a part of a worship team , and even though I'm no longer with them, I regret nothing.. I learned so much, my voice has improved and they taught me more than they can ever know.Then I visited a church a few times, and it was short lived but I had so many prophetic words spoken over me and confirmation after confirmation, and I still believe God for those words to come to pass.  After that I joined a new church and I learned so much there, about myself, about God and about others.  I was able to sing, and serve.  I also realized how much I loved to write and I'm so thankful to God for the opportunity I had to be able to write there.  I slowly became more bold, I got to where I wanted to learn more and more and I became more hungry for the Word of God and found myself constantly asking Him what can I do next.  I felt God leading me on a new road, but all the things that led me up to this moment, I'll never forget!  I've met great friends and lost friends, but God never budged. I've had moments where I moved, but He didn't :)
I thank Him for every moment, every day, and every opportunity and I can't wait to see what He does next.
I don't know where this road will take me but I do know that I with Him leading, everything is going to be ok.  I don't know who (if anyone) will ever read this, but if you do, I hope it encourages you!  Never forget who you are in Christ and don't let man (or woman) stop you from doing what He has led you to do. You are created for something special!  You are worth it and loved!! Enjoy your journey!!


Philippians 3:13-14

13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
