I'm God's girl!

My father passed away on Feb. 18, 2013. It was the worst day...make that week...of my life. I'm not really ready to talk about it just yet. But my sister wrote a very sweet post [from what I can tell, I didn't have the heart to read the whole thing]. But feel free to go on over and check it out. Mid-February Shouldn't be so Scary.

[I don't generally talk about my faith that much on the blog, simply because I like to remain objective for all my readers. So a little [FYI] God and His grace is the only thing getting me through this situation and He will probably come up a lot for awhile.]

      I had a date with my mom last night. We were at church Sunday and say a flyer for an event called, Girl's Night Out. I immediately thougth sign me up as I walked past, then I turned back. I read the flyer and An artist/author names Gwen Smith was going to be at the church across the street and mom and I decided, let's have a date. We went to dinner at Libby's here in town and I have already had a bad day and I wasn't feeling well and I was so wanting to just go home and curl up in the bed. But I powered through.

      We go to the church and I was extremely excited to see inside this church because it's real big on the outside and it's directly across the street from our church. Well, let. me. tell. you. It was beautiful. Everything about it I kept going oh my look at this, look at that! Here's a little picture for you.


This is me using my fancy Panoramic camera feature.... I'm still learning. 

So I'm already starting to feel better and I saw a book on the table called Broken into Beautiful, which you can purchase HERE. I thought that title sounds sweet I wonder what that is about.... of course there is a song, any of you who know me know that music is my life. So here it is.

Oh my gosh it just spoke to me I was in tears. I thought about my daddy, my sisters, Dee. <3 She went on with a great message and I felt as if she were speaking to me and she also played a song off of her newest album Uncluttered.
So I officially love everything she does. I've started her Broken into Beautiful book as soon as I got home last night and it's great. It's like she is speaking to me. I urge all of you to check her out, you won't regret it! <3

  1. I feel so silly - I didn't make the connection until just now that you and Danielle are sisters. I am so sorry that you lost your dad so soon. It stinks. Praise the Lord that you know there is a reunion ahead.

  4. Religion is something i am really confused about at the moment. and I have debated on doing a post on it. I am sorry about your father, I lost my Grandfather last April and it was a really hard time for my family.
    I think talking about things helps maybe not blogging about it but personally writing it on paper may help.
    I know I am making this comment very long. Sorry about that.
    btw I like the songs :)
