As I approach my 33rd Birthday, I am forced to reflect on the year past and look forward to the year ahead. Around this time last year, I was laid off from a job that, in my heart, I knew was not a good fit for me. However, it was at that job that I met a couple of amazing women who I keep in touch with to this day. I realize that I was there for a purpose. It may not have been to make a career, but I definitely made a sisterly connection with women that I will continue to admire and learn from for years to come.
At that same time, my mother was diagnosed with an illness that required her to have someone available to care for her and take her to doctor’s appointments. All I can say is that GOD is TRULY AMAZING! What seemed like an obstacle or downfall was really a blessing in disguise. I am thankful.
I wasn’t sure if I would spend Thanksgiving 2009, or my 33rd Birthday, with my mother. Again, GOD is TRULY AMAZING! I have enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with those that I love and cherish and look forward to spending my Birthday with them as well.
I have a new job that I was very unsure of in the beginning. However, for the first time in my professional career, I can say that I enjoy my job! GOD is TRULY AMAZING!
I’ve had some obstacles trying to start a family, and though it hasn’t happened yet, I am thankful that each and every test that I take comes back with normal results. Also, my husband and I are at a great place in our marriage. I know that it will happen exactly when it should. GOD is TRULY AMAZING!
Although year 32 had some hills and valleys, I was given a great navigation system and some really good running shoes and ran right on through it. GOD is TRULY AMAZING!
I look forward to what year 33 has to bring and know that the with an AMAZING GOD ordering my steps, I will be fine, fine, fine…whoo (in the words of Mary J. Blige).
Have an AMAZING weekend!
