God made me this way...

This weekend I attended a Kingdom Mobilization workshop facilitated by the one and only, Nolen Rollins. It was AWESOME and reminded me of a very important fact. I am not perfect and I have a very unique set of gifts, talents and personality traits and most importantly GOD MADE ME THIS WAY!! He's not done with me - That is for sure and certain but... He's ok with where I am for today and therefore so am I. I'm learning to be content with me just the way I am... and that may not sound like a huge revelation to some of you but... it is for me!! The following is a poem that I found and I really LOVE it... :-)

A Poem About Our Friends
Someone will always be prettier/more handsome.
Someone will always be smarter.
Some of their houses will be bigger.
Some will drive a better car.
Their children will do better in school.
And their wife/husband will fix more things around the house or make a better apple pie.
So let it go, and love you and your circumstances.
Think about it!
The prettiest woman/strongest man in the world can have hell in their heart.
The most highly favored person on your job may be unable to have children.
The richest person you know, the one who has the car, the house, the clothes~ might be lonely.
And the word says, 'If I have not Love, I am nothing.' So, again, love you. Love who you are. Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say, 'I am too Blessed to be Stressed and too Anointed, to be Disappointed!'

The top five things I'm thankful for today are...

1. I have some crazy amazing friends!! and I love them ALL...

2. I am so thankful that God led me to Summit Church - It ROCKS!!

3. I am very thankful for my family and their health... (My Aunt and cousins came to visit this weekend and it was so GREAT...

4. Thank you God for wonderful little condo and the ability to share it with others and for the journey that you have led me on this year!! (I know, that's sort of two but... you know me...)

5. Last and definitely not least... I feel thankful to have a job!! :-)
