Joyful June: God's Whisper


As I recover from surgery... Joyful June came at the PERFECT moment. This month of finding joy in something every day has blessed not only others who have sent me messages thanking me, but it's blessed me. I'm thankful and... well... joyful in that! lol

I'm rediscovering who I am as a person and who I am in Christ.

6 months ago in Dec I made a vow to stay single. During this time I went on one double date which was a blind date, but to me it was just a friend thing. When I make a vow or promise to anyone, especially God I take it VERY seriously. So seriously that I only trusted a couple of people with this...people that have prayed with me. I'm human I've had crushes during this 6 months but more than anything I used these 6 months to focus on me. I've grown as a woman of God...and I'm amazed at the things God has taught me...

But He isn't done with me yet. My 6 month single vow runs it's course and wraps in just a few days. This doesn't mean I'm suddenly going to date someone. I'm not. I'm not done focusing on me. But I'm also not going to shut people out like I had been anymore.

God has shared with me new passions and old passions alike. He has brought back to my life the desire to write. He has brought back my desire to craft. He's taught me the right times to say "no" and the times to be "too kind."

God's whisper isn't audible, but it's soft and it's STILL guiding me. I am who I am and I celebrate that just as we all should but I hope and pray that I never stop growing and following God's calling in my life.

The coming months are bringing a lot of change in my life. I'm finally stepping up and going to do something to help my dreams become a reality. It's time to be the strong and power woman that God has created me to be.

Today I feel joyful for God's whisper :)
