without being too melodramatic, i believe the most specific ability i have is in giving words to a feeling or an idea or a situation. but for the first time in my life, i’m speechless.
i’ve done nothing to earn or deserve the blessings of joy my Father has given me. through circumstances brilliant and dismal, the past six months have comprised the most incredible times of my life. through Christ’s love i’ve put old lies i believed about myself to death and wholly and completely found a new and redefined position in the sonship of Jesus. i’ve been surrounded by the dearest friends i’ve ever had and have overflowed with wonder at God’s faithfulness. and it hasn’t been a season of just happy feelings—it’s literally a perception change by Christ that has changed my life from one of depression and self-deprecation to joy. God-given joy.
and how beautifully apt, abigail joy, that we’ve only just begun to share such a gorgeous future and an enthralling present.
