XXV

As a little girl, I have awaited for the day that I will one day turn an age where I saw womanhood to come into full bloom. As I have now come to fulfill this anticipation I'm honestly more blessed than anything. This year's birthday celebration was a lot different than my previous years. Birthdays are supposed to be about balloons, cake, friends and celebrating! but for me this year, my birthday was a whole lot more personal than anything. The only one whom I longed to celebrate it with was with my father in heaven. Normally I'd be feeling a plethora of emotions, hurt and disappointed that my expectations weren't fulfilled as I wished they'd be but not this year. I had everything to my hearts content & more! Not because of the gifts and presents or the showering of love upon me but just because I've come to taste that I AM LOVED, and this for me is so much more than enough for me to celebrate me!

"How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!

How vast is the sum of them!

Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand.

When I awake, I am still with you"

-Psalm 139:17,18

Happy XXV to me! Thank you, Jesus.
