My life has changed...for the better! I'm almost 45 and I am finally seeing the truth about who I am. It took some time in the bottom of the pit of despair before I realized that people don't define me; God does. I've spent the last 2 months aggressively digging into my Bible, seeking to find myself. My heart believed so many lies that needed to be uprooted and burned. My name means "break of day" and "joy and praise", but the light had gone out and the joy was no where to be found. Some might say that I was in a midlife crisis...and maybe I was. I call it a turning point. A time when the lies were first replaced with the truth. The beginning of a truth journey. A journey that will continue for the rest of my life. I'm not immune to lies, but I am certainly more aware and daily filling myself with truth. The truth has indeed set me free!
I wrote this today. This is who I am. This is God's truth about me.
