🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏Today is my birthday, and after receiving so many beautiful messages, calls, texts, and well wishes, I felt compelled to share something from my heart. Normally, I probably wouldn’t post something this personal, but the amount of love shown to me today has made me reflect on just how incredibly blessed I am.
❤️Sometimes life hands us cards we never expected, never asked for, and may never fully understand. This season of my life has been one of those times.
❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹There are people I love beyond words who are facing incredibly difficult battles right now. Out of respect for their privacy, I won’t share their stories or who they are, but if you would like to give me one more birthday gift, please say a prayer for the people closest to my heart. 🙏❤️
❤️Life can be incredibly hard. But I have also learned that sometimes, in the hardest moments, God does some of His greatest work within us. We are transformed. We become more compassionate, more grateful, more present, and more aware of what truly matters.
🙏🙏We may never understand why we are handed certain cards at certain times in our lives. But I believe with all my heart that God walks beside us through every one of them. And somehow, even in the midst of fear, pain, and uncertainty, He allows us to see blessings and transformation taking place right before our eyes.
Through everything, I have felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude. I am thankful for every minute I have been given—the opportunity, the privilege, and the blessing of being able to care for the people I love when they need me most. There is nowhere else I would rather be.
So on my birthday, more than anything, I am simply grateful. Grateful for another year of life. Grateful for my faith. Grateful for the people God has placed in my life. And grateful for every single person who reached out today and reminded me how surrounded by love I truly am.
Please continue to pray for healing, strength, comfort, peace, and for God to surround the people I love with His grace. And please say a prayer for all those quietly fighting battles we may know nothing about.🙏🙏
God is good, even when life is hard. I don’t know what tomorrow holds, but I know Who I trust to walk beside us through it. 🙏❤️
