Featured Five Minute Friday:
So, now be brave, set your timer, clear your head, for five minutes of free writing without worrying about getting it right.
OK, are you ready? Please give us your best five minutes on the word:::
Story…
We all have a story to tell...some more dramatic than others. Whatever story it is...it is Gods story for you, your testimony. I wish I could say mine was a perfect story...don't we all. But, I can say that it was Gods perfect plan for my life. It may have not been my perfect story...but His and I know that it was way better than mine.
I believe the world wants everyone to believe that all stories should be perfect and have that happily ever after ending. Sadly to say that is false!! For almost all my life I believed that and when mine didn't end up that way I couldn't figure out what went wrong. Why couldn't I have that happily ever after. But I came to realize that that wasn't Gods story for my life. He had something better planned...something I could never think nor fathom. Something so wonderful....His Son. He had it all planned out.
One of my favorite vs is Jere 29:11
His ways are not our ways...and I love that. We have such a loving Father that wants the best for our lives and has the best story for each of us. So go out and share your story God has given you!!
STOP!
