Merry Christmas

As I sit here in the still of Christmas morning, I am so thankful. My children are off to Savannah with their father- so different than how I grew up. When I think about my life's choices and events that led me to this moment, I'm grateful for this day. The day chosen to celebrate the birth of My Savior.  My Savior looked to this day in 2015 knowing at some point I would come back to Him and surrender my all to Him. He knew I would need Him to comfort and heal all the bruises of my life choices. He knew I would need a heart of vengeance changed to a heart of love. He knew that I would need LOTS of forgiving and to be taught how to forgive others. He knew there would be a day that I felt like giving up. He knew I would have given up if not for Him and I would not have this day to live for and glorify Him. As He told Jeremiah "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you..."
He knew I would mess up. He knew I would hurt people and get hurt by people. He knew it all and decided to come that I may have a right to the tree of life. He knew and still wanted to restore the relationship with me. It doesn't matter to me what the exact date or season that the birth took place. I am just thankful that it did....just for me.
Merry Christmas to you all!!
Love y'all!!!
