I’ll have to make this short and sweet as I have the honor of attending a young woman’s 25th birthday this evening. I’d write when I get home but then I like to have any time before bed open to family. 🙂 Speaking of friends and family, I truly feel that I’m so abundantly blessed with both family and friends that for a split moment I worry I might be too blessed!
There is no shortage of people to offer a prayer, kind word, caring embrace, gentle reprimand or shoulder to soak in the tears. I often feel this surge of over abundance in love that my spirit feels it could POP! And then I wonder…if I feel so blessed here on earth does that mean that it will be less in heaven? Nah…that thought quickly goes away because I know that even though I’ve been privy to the spirit of the Lord in so many here on earth that in heaven that abundant feeling of love will be so much more in heaven our earthly bodies wouldn’t be able to withstand the goodness.
I received a gift today from a friend that ‘found’ me…or, as I’d rather think, was led to me by the Spirit. She has helped me with getting EXPOSED through the editing phase and she has supported my ministry with a cheerleader exuberance. I actually have more than one friend that has been called my ‘cheerleader’ and I pray they don’t see it as me they are cheering on but God’s purpose and His plan for this endeavor. Like I said, I’m overly blessed…I can’t find the proper way to even offer the gratitude that I feel to my friends that help me SO MUCH in this plight.
My earthly self wants to say I don’t deserve it…but then that would be denying God of what HE wants. I (me, Shannon) don’t deserve the time and effort my friends spend in helping me but I do know that God does and all the people that benefit from His mission of love.
So thank you to ALL of my friends who have said, “Yes” to His call.
🙂
Blessings
Shannon
