Well, I'm just going to dive in.
This summer feels like it is going to be full of possibilities for me to grow and learn, laugh and love, and rest and renew. I can't wait.
The past couple of years have been a place of deep valleys for me. I've had some moments where I felt like I was standing on giant mountains but looking back they were only little hills. That's okay. Whether in the valley or on the hill I have been with my Jesus. He has brought such great healing into my life. I feel like I'm back and better then ever.
I wouldn't trade a single tear or moment of fear. I wouldn't trade a sleepless night. I will not replace Man's peace for Him.
So with all that I look at this summer as an endless possibility to dig deeper, go farther. I have a new resound of the way things should be. I'm studying His Word again. Deeply studying. Looking forward to the fall where I will be hosting/leading a Bible Study. I'm back to writing again.
I am back to looking at each new day as a way to be with Him. God has intensified my heart toward my ministries again.
Oh how I needed my valleys. I needed my valleys because I needed to get back to just Him. I needed to feel like everything was stripped away so that I could remember the One to whom I belong. I needed to remember that I am strong because He gives me strength.
Yes, I needed my valleys to get back to myself. God created me a certain way with a certain part of Him. I cherish it and am thankful for it.
If you take away anything from this post I pray you get this ... Cherish the valley you are in. Cherish the climb up the mountain. You just wont believe the view from the top!
