I just finished reading this book called "SURPRISE ME" by terry esau and I absolutely loved it.. It's about this man who prayed "surprise me God" daily for 30 days and wrote about each day's experiences and surprises. and i think its just magnificent...
i know some people think there's a risk in counting your blessings, but I don't really agree...
when i look at my life from day to day i see just how many things i can be thankful for, and just how many things were unexpected...usually the unexpected things are the ones that create the best memories.
not all surprises are good .... but one day I woke up and realized that I was happy without trying, I was made for more than I was allowing myself, and none of my past hurts or failures mattered or stung anymore. Surprise!
I'm ready to be what I was made to be...surprise me God.
