Thankful Thursday

The journey between what you once were and who you are now becoming is where the dance of life really takes place.
Barbara DeAngelis


Living is an adventure..... life for me today is all about having choices.....going new places...meeting fun people.....touching the world....living with excitement.  There's so many things I'm grateful for...things like..

-Showing up at a friend's place and finding them exhausted, stressed and in need of help.  They're in the process of moving and the movers forgot to take a bunch of things. We jumped in to help and loved that we could. It was great for them and us.
-It's decided....this spring we're heading to Europe...London, Paris... Switzerland and Holland. Yeahhhh. 
-Sold a bunch more books....I always think the book is done...that it's run it's course and then boom....another bunch of sales. 
-reaching out....making a difference and meeting so many new friends. Funny how life feels like a deep breath in......then slowly out.....and in again.....and out..... ☺
-Love....who knew that His love would be this incredible.....this amazing....and this freeing. Who knew that His love would fill all those empty spaces and places inside and make me want to fly. Who knew that love...His love would be the best thing ever to happen in my world.

That pic took my attention...I can't imagine swinging like that so high as you see the world. It is a matter of faith...It is scary sometimes but we are always reassured by heaven's Grasp!!! The Hands that are holding our "swings" of lives...

Europe? Have a blast sister! And so happy for you the way things are going. May many more be encouraged by your testimony! Never tire and may His strength always be yours. Take care.
