Last week was one of those weeks where I felt like God was constantly giving me encouragement... I like to call these things gifts for the journey...so I though in order to rejoice more in my Abba Daddy I would, from time to time, share the gifts He gave me.
I like to call last week old friends week.
I got an email out of the blue from an old college friend that I had not talked to in over a year. I also got a facebook request from another college friend that had been on my mind...She just decided one day to get facebook and I love being able to keep in contact with her!
I got to meet up with one of my favorite college friends for a long breakfast and some catching up time.... she just finished her second degree, this time in Nursing, and it was so much fun to catch up with her!
On Thursday night I got to chat with my lovelies. Oh they bless my heart so much and I adore each of them (and hopefully next week we will all be there!)
And on Friday I got to have lunch with one of my favorite friends, Becky, and just talk and be girls :)
And then on Saturday I got to meet up with my friends Nicky and Chris for lunch and to meet their sweet baby girl Callie. Oh she is gorgeous. And she slept in my arms for a good 45 minutes. A little piece of heaven on earth :)
Oh how beautiful the gift of friendship is. I was so in awe of that last week as He showed me time and time again How much He loves me....with little gifts for the journey.
I can think of nothing better then journeying with friends.
Gifts for the journey...love it! That's what miracles in the mundane is all about...seeing the hand of God doing it's thing in the everyday bits of life. Such an encouragement!

Those are the best kinds of weeks, a gift from God indeed!
Did I tell you I finished reading Never the Bride? In like just over 24 hours? I need to tell you all about what I thought, it was amazing (but you already knew that)!!

You did have a full and blessed week with friends, didn't you?! It's funny that we should both post about feeling blessed by our friendships on the very same day! Oh, God has been so good to us!
XOXO
Oh, I keep forgetting to tell you - I ADORE your new design. It's gorgeous!!

Amen to that, Christy! What a difference friends make along this journey we call life.
You are loved by many. You are blessed.
