The past few weeks have been challenging to say the least, with moving and getting settled, the uncertainty of not having a job, missing my friends, and just everyday challenges of being a young woman in this crazy world. While I was in a small group this spring we read the book Captivating, which I have mentioned on this blog before. There is a chapter in this book that talks about how God wants to romance the hearts of women. "Every song you love, every memory you cherish, every moment that has moved you to holy tears has been given to you from the ONE who has been pursuing you from your first breath in order to win your heart" I like to call these moments in life "I love you's" from God. This week in the midst of my challenges and struggles of uncertainty there were five distinct moments that I was sure were "Paula, remember, I am here and I love you" moments from God.
1) Baby Ducks playing in the water at the park
2) Lightening Bugs on my nighttime walk
3) Lightening with no thunder
4) Dinner with the best friend in the whole world
5) Walmart runs/Chic-Fil-A Dates with my sister
"It will be as if it has been scripted for your heart. He knows what takes your breath away, knows what makes your heart beat faster."
May we never miss the I love yous that God is sending our way. Ask God when you need one, "God just show me that you love me, because I need it today."
Loving well,
Paula
