2012 My Revival Year.

Last year I wrote: "This year is a year of revival, not of my spirit, but of the hopes, dreams and ideas that were broken and shattered, of my identity, of a deeper sense of who I am in Christ."

Year of revival?

Yes. It has.

This past year has been incredible.

I have seen God work in me, through me and with me. He has been absolutely mind blowing! I have fallen deeper in love with Him, learned more about Him and spent some amazing time with Him.

I've had Him speak to the very core of my being, touch those deep, dark, lonely places and bring hope and belief to dreams and ideas that once seemed impossible or unthinkable.

He has brought me through great pain and heartbreak; He held me through it all!!

When I look back I see how His hand has been guiding me, how His grace has been sufficient in every area - relationally, physically & emotionally. I'm overwhelmed with His awesomeness!!!

There is unspeakable joy that I can only credit to Him. He always finds a way to show His unique and precious love and care for me.

My love and desire for His Word has grown immensely. I feel like an empty river bed when I get away from reading & studying it! I can truly say, "As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for You, O God." Psalms 42:1 NLT

Without Him my life is pointless and meaningless. He gives me reason to wake up each morning with a song in my heart and a smile on my face. A new day to walk with Him and see where He is working and what I can do for Him.

His Word had radically changed my thinking, which changes how I look at life, how I treat people, how I respond to situations and really, who I am.

I love Him. He has been soooooooo good to me.

I'm looking forward to what 2013 has in store for me - my year of redemption/restoration.
