I cherish these each year because I'm reminded about how much I was loved and cared for during that time. I've written about it many times because it kind of shocked me then and kind of still does.
It's amazing how God uses His people to bless you when you need it most. I don't keep up with all of the people who left me all of those sweet messages then, but I know if I needed them still they would be there for me.
When you're weak, God is so strong. He uses His people, scriptures, and circumstances to bless you.
I have a lot of good things going on this year, and I am so thankful for all the amazing people God continues to put in my life. They are smart and talented, and I am learning so much.
Also, Jamie has been a huge blessing to me. God has used him in ways to bless me that he doesn't even realize. It's kind of cool. Lilianna is doing great too. She has a very tender heart.
And, here is one last tidbit. I've been saying for years that rejection is protection, but this year I've had to expand that sentence.
Rejection is protection to move you in a different direction because you are God's chosen selection!
If certain people are not in your life right now, that's okay. There are certain people God has in your life right now for certain reasons, and you never know which ones will be lifelong friends. Seek those people, bless and propel them. Overall, God's got you, and you are never alone.
Update: I just realized this post is just like my 2018 post, but that just proves that I am still so thankful for the people God continues to put in my life.
