Who Am I, That the Lord of All the Earth, Would Care To Know My Name?

If I'm being honest, I had a really terrible morning today. Some of my expectations were disappointed and I got angry. Probably the most angry I've been in a very long time. I was angry, frustrated, disappointed, sad, embarrassed all wrapped up into one emotional mess. Of course being me, I did my best to stuff it away until the first tears I've cried in a while started to flow.

But even though all the expectations I'd had this weekend were thrown to the ground, My friends and I went about our day just as we had planned. We channeled our inner kid at a children's science museum, ate some good food, and shopped at our favorite store. We laughed and goofed off for hours. It was exactly what I needed to get my mind back on track.

Later that night, my friends left for a little while and I, for a reason I'm unsure of, looked into the mirror. And as soon as I did, I felt like someone hand rested on my shoulder and it was as if God had leaned into my ear and whispered "you are so blessed."

And He is so right.

You know what? God is a really cool dude. He never ceases to remind me He's always here. I may not see him. I may forget to look. But He never leaves. Not even for a second do I doubt that He is present. I may have never seen God, but I know that I have met him. And I know that he will never leave.

I am so blessed. I am so thankful.

His love forever,
Parker
