It’s been almost a month and a half since the unlikely events of July 14, and I can honestly say that  the craziness of that day has made me 100 percent more on fire for God!!! Theres something about going  through a hard time or a traumatic experience that draws us so close to the Father heart of God. 
 
When you are faced with the question “am I going to live through this” a lot of things go through your mind… Have I lived a life worthy of God our Father?! Have I served him well… have I lived every moment to it’s fullest?!  My honest answer to these questions is no… now rather then getting upset and focusing on the fact that I havent taken every opportunity to live joyfully, I can change my reality.  I can choose joy instead of pain! I can choose love instead of hate.  I can choose grace instead of anger. 
 
Truth is we have one life to live.  And as I walk a way from the robbery, I realize that God’s giving me a second chance to come alive!! And to write a story full of love, adventure, and excitement!! I mean come on, we have one life to make our passions and our dreams come true.  We have one life to forgive those who have hurt us one life to let go of bitterness and give way to love, pure love that God so willingly gives.  We have one life to write a story that’s worth living and telling.  But its your choice, it’s my choice… God gives us a choice every new day!! I just wanna encourage you to write your story because God’s giving you the pen and the blank pages are waiting for you.
