For some reason tonight I felt as if a decision I had made 8 years ago had set me on the wrong path for the rest of my life. I still have some hurts and I am still uncertain, but I needed to remind myself that my life has meant something. That every event has had a reason.

• I have experienced living in another country
• I have had a profound impact on others' lives
• I have faced the most painful heartbreak that I think could ever exist and......
  • I survived
• I have passed the point of feeling like I need a guy to complete me
• I have earned a college degree
• I have kept my childlike enthusiasm
• I have gained confidence
• I have forgiven

I don't mean to say these are my accomplishments. These are the wonderful paths that God has allowed me to travel. I have to remember not to covet the paths that he gives to others; no matter how inviting they seem. I must must must keep in mind that He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly more than all I may ask, or even think.
