It Just Takes One

I had begun to wonder....perhaps I have made the biggest mistake.....maybe this is NOT it! Nothing has been normal, so much is changing and I wonder.....maybe I'm wrong.  Maybe I just got it all wrong.  Maybe this dream was just, well, a dream...a fantasy that belongs on Disney Chanel but not in real life...not in mine.

And it's funny what happens when you throw your hands up in the air, confess that you REALLY cannot do this and yeah.......open up your hands and let go.  Funny how you remember a couple days later that conversation He had with you in the bathroom....(you KNOW He does that to me!!!!) two years ago...I had no idea then, and it isn't what I imagined, yet it is, just better.  And to give me a heart for it, I had to develop a heart for it.  That meant having faith, believing His Word when I lost it all, when my world crashed, when my reality changed, when part of my dream is to help save the very thing I lost.

He made me able.  Able to believe what He has spoken to me is true, believe what I have to say matters and can make a difference, believe that there are those out there who need to hear my story and believe that none of this has been wasted.  He made me believe I could be obedient, that I could succeed, that He would not fail me or let me down and that He still walks on water.  I only needed one thing to load my sling shot with.  Yes.  Thankful.
