A Birthday Reflection

Every year on my birthday, I pause to take a look at the past year of my life and ahead to the next.

I turned 24 today, and the last year of my life has been eventful, fulfilling, and even trying.

From my graduation one year ago to finding out my closest friend is moving away, God has guided me and brought me through moments that made me laugh, cry, and cling closer to Him.

At the end of this year, I can say that my walk with the Lord has grown deeper, my friendships have grown richer, and I have made new friends along the way.

Did I do everything perfectly? Not by a long shot. But every mistake was a chance to learn, to grow, and to move on.

I am thankful for every experience of the last year.

And if you are reading this and you walked through any number of those experiences with me, thank you for being a part of my journey.

As I look ahead to the next year, I am older, wiser, and stronger.

And I have every intention of continuing to grow.
