WOW I can't believe 2012 is over with. As I look back on this past year, I'm proud of the person I have become. I have become a step-mom to 6 children and I wouldn't change it. If you would of asked me 5 years ago if I would get involved with someone who had kids, I would have told you no. But God changed my heart and so thankful that He did. I have a wonderful boyfriend who I want to spend the rest of my life with. He is an awesome father and does whatever is necessary to provide for his kids. Whenever I am sick he is by my side helping me through it. I feel so completely happy with him.
When I quit my job to be a full time house wife people thought I was crazy. Heck at times I thought I was nuts too but I knew it was in God's plan for my life. Times have been rough but through it all God has been faithful to me. I've been able to go back to church and worship Him. I missed those times so much. My friends that supported me have been awesome through this time. I don't get to see them that much or talk to them that much but they are still truly great friends.
I've been able to make some great pen friends and they have truly blessed my life by their friendship. God has truly put these women in my life when I needed them the most. I think with the combination of these friends, Danny, and other friends; it's why I've been able to stay off of certain medications. It's a pure blessing not to have to take that medicine everyday. I know that if I keep my head up and give it to God, I can stay off these medications.
I have a wonderful family that loves me and cares about me. I may not see them often but they know that I love them. I'm going to try and see them more but it may not work out that way in the end. But I know that they understand how things are for me. I hate not seeing them but maybe twice a year but sometimes that's all I can afford. And then it's not for very long either. I miss my nephews and nieces so much. I miss my parents and my brother and sister.
Looking forward, I don't know what it holds. I do know this though that I have a Heavenly Father who is going to be by my side the entire time. He is not going to leave or forsake me. I know that I have a guy who will be by my side as well. I have friends who will be by my side as well. I may lose some friends along the way and that's ok. I'll gain some friends too. I'll grow closer to my Father through reading His Word, worship, and prayer. And at the start of 2014, I'll be a different person. Challenges will come, and I will overcome them. But not alone because I can't do it alone.
So my final tid bit is this: bring it 2013 because I'm ready to face you with the help of Christ on my side. All things I can do through Him!
