This is my first time linking up with Lauren for High Five for Friday BUT I love reading others who have joined (so I decided to do so as well! :) Here are five of my favorite things from this past week!
1. My new job at ULTA Beauty starts on Sunday! I'm so beyond excited for this opportunity to do something that I love and get paid for it! Woop whoop, praise you Jesus for providing!
2. My pastoral reference and all my transfer student forms have been received at Northwest University! Now I just patiently wait for my acceptance letter!
3. After a long week, I was able to relax with my yummy new candle from Slatkin and Co. called Tropical Spice and nice warm bubble bath.
4. Finally got part of my closet organized! I LOVE organization and this had been driving me crazy for quiet some time now.
5. The best part of my week was Wednesday. Wednesday nights are my favorite because I spend quality time with Jesus and other young women as we take time to study God's word together and just be in fellowship. It honestly is the best mid week pick me up and I'm so blessed to have these ladies in my life.
One year ago today, the Heavens were celebrating as my sweet boy accepted Christ into his life. After being raised Catholic and I Christian, we began a year and a half relationship unequally yoked, and boy was that dysfunctional! Yet, by God's grace, mercy and love we are celebrating our one year of being equally yoked, being in full relationship with each other and God as the center of our relationship. Pure happiness.
I'm not sure where we'd be now, as being in a long distance relationship without Christ in the center of it all. But I do know that I am so thankful that we do not have to face that. I'm so thankful for a man who loves Jesus with all his heart who supports me and leads us in the way God has designed.
Thank you Jesus for your never ending mercy and grace. For blessing a sinner like me with a beautiful relationship.
