a tiny revelation

Wow it has been 2 months since my last blog, my goodness I am a slacker. :)

As I was sitting at work with nothing to do but eat chocolate covered fruit, I was going through some pictures on facebook of my days in high school and college. And I am so thankful for the place I am at in my life with my AMAZING husband. Not to be bragging on myself.. but to look at the kind of girl I was and the walk I had with the Lord, I've realized how much I have grown and am sooo thankful for the things, that I thought were life shattering,  He had me go through to be the young woman I am today and the relationship I have with Jesus. I dont know where I would be if I had continued on the path I was going and be friends with the people I was friends with. And even though I am not a huge fan of Texas, I dont think I would change it. I have a GREAT family here that even though I talk about how I'd like to leave Amarillo, I would never want to be apart from them. Its taken me quite some time to admit that (not that I have a great family, but being in Amarillo) and I will still cling to the fact the I am a native born Colorado girl and NOT a Texan and still secretly pray that the Lord will move the "Gehm/Venable" family to a compound way up in the mountains (shhh, pretend like you didnt read that, ;) ) But I am embracing the life God has blessed me with these past few years. And I am certainly blessed.
