Moving on

So I have realized today that I am so stoked to be where I'm at today. Regardless of the pain and the hardship I have had to endure, it was all worth it. And I am more then thankful for it. I wouldn't be who I am if these things hadn't happened. I had a little bit of a health scare yesterday. I had a raging migraine that made me physically ill and I ended up at urgent care where they informed me that my blood pressure was sky high and my intestines were inflamed. The Dr. said they think it's from stress. So I have to monitor my blood pressure all this week and write it down to take to my dr appt on monday. The Dr. def layed into me about dealing with my stress and not internalizing it. She reminded me that I am not super woman (as much as I would like to think so) and that I need to take care of myself. It was a slap in the face that this growing and healing process isn't done. I still have much to tackle and I am ready to grab the Lord by the hand and take it head on! I realized I had gotten comfortable where I was and had forgotten that I can't just stop. I always need to keep moving forward. I am a project the Lord sees worth working on (as little ryan told me) and I know I will never be finished until the day I go home to be with my Pops in the heavenly kingdom. But for now it's time to press forward towards that goal which I will obtain. I am a masterpiece forever in progress and I could not be more excited about it! Just because I have things to work on or am flawed doesn't mean theres anything wrong with me. I think that's the beauty of it. We all have things we struggle with and need to work on. But those things are def the things that make us who we are. And I love that! I appreciate it more and more! Everyday there is something new and I thank the Lord that I have His hand to guide me through. I guess what it came down to today was awhile back the Lord grabbed me by the hand and said Let's go were going on a journey. Somewhere along the line I took a break and sat down on the side of the road. The beauty of it is He stopped with me. He never left me even though it was my decision to stop moving. But now I am more then ready to grab my bags and continue on. So I'm off again to see the world in "His eyes" as He promised me. And I can't freaking wait!
