its funny how life can change so drastically in just a matter or weeks. i have come to realize God completely changed my world in the last couple of months. three months ago i was so unhappy and it took getting to where i am now to realize it. i haven't been this happy or content in a long time. i love where i live. garland may be a lot of things to a lot of people, but to me its home, and i love it. it isn't fake or glamorous or fast paced, just real and brimming with a character and personality that i have come to really like. i love the people i live with, even though i don't get to see them enough, i feel like i'm always in the middle of something fun happening when i'm with them. i love my job(s). i'm not swimming in cash, but i'm making it, and i am lucky enough to be able to put my principles (which i have been preachin for awhile) to the test; doing something everyday that i love despite the money. i love my church. i can't believe i was lucky enough to find it and i truly feel at home there. i want everyone i know to go there and experience an imperfect church that realizes that, and is pointed in the right direction and working to get there together. i love my lifegroup, still new but made up of truly wonderful people who i can't wait to get to know better. i love that my parents are now texas residents, which we've prayed for for years. all that to say, what do i have left to want? nothing. all i can be right now is humbled and grateful. thats exactly what i wanted for christmas.
