Dear 2024,
You weren’t gentle, but you were necessary.. You taught me strength I didn’t know I had, wisdom I didn’t know I needed, & priorities I didn’t know mattered.
This year I learned that GROWTH and LOSS can coexist.
This year had a lot of ups & downs,
a lot of really good & fun times that I’m extremely grateful for, & here are just a few. A lot of love, happiness & gratitude & just learning more about my Abba. Furthermore, I am extremely blessed to call KCD my family, God knows I needed them for this journey.❤️
However, this year has also been very hard,
there were many days where I felt like my back was completely against the wall & I had no more strength left to keep going on this walk with the Lord. But He was with me through every month this year, keeping me sane & pouring out His grace on me, & He’s still with me now. Towards the end of this year I learned the true meaning of “joy”, what it means to have peace in the midst of chaos. To be able to look at all the good and not pay any mind to the bad. Although there were many nights I cried myself to sleep, the Lord was my comforter and tho there were many times I turned my face from Him He continued to pursue me. No more of that this year. This year I give my word that I will not run from my Father, I will be slow to speak & quicker to obey.
“Things are about to get a lot better” He tells me, “Just trust Me.”
The tears you cried in 2024 are watering the seeds you’ve planted for in 2025.
He is so kind. Then He told me..
“I didn’t carry you through this year just to let you down. I didn’t help you up to this point just to leave you. Even if it seems like I’m silent, have FAITH that I’m working on your behalf. Every single one of your tears are visible to Me, and I hear your prayers. If you let Me, I’ll walk with you every year of your life. I love you.”
May the silent battles of 2024 transform into 2025’s loudest victories.
Thank you Jesus for changing my life and calling me higher than what I thought was possible. As hard as things can get, there’s nothing else in this world I would rather be doing than serving You.
