white as snow

I tried writing this post yesterday, but there was an error and it therefore deleted my post altogether. I felt that God may have wanted me to dive deeper into the vulnerability of my post though.

I was struggling the other day, and God has really shown me that he forgives to such an extent that makes me blemish-free. I was upset at myself and I decided to dive into Psalm 51 and listen to 'White As Snow' by Jon Foreman. The song goes hand in hand with the psalm. It really did speak to me. The way that the emotion was seeping to God through that psalm was the emotions I felt; it couldn't have been better. Then I stumbled upon Psalm 55:18 which says 'He rescues my soul in safety from the battle that I wage' - it reminded me that I am waging a war against myself but with God's strength within me I could let go of the battle and freely live in Him. It was a beautiful verse that I have now fallen in love with.

Humility was a huge thing that came up. I humbled myself to my best friend and good results sprung forth. We are continuing to grow in vulnerability and authenticity, it's an awesome thing.

She is going to Dallas, Texas today! I am so excited! She is going to a huge fashion show; a couple at her church invited her and are taking her because they believe in our passion and dream. It's such a sweet opportunity for our line and our eyes to be open to the fashion industry more. :) I am sooooo pumped to see what God does within the two days she is there.

My graduation party is today. I'm quite pumped for it. I was thinking of displaying poetry I've written but I'm not sure. Hm. I just might! That's new for me because I'm usually not too open with it. But I am ready, willing and able to share the gift that God has given me with words. Oh, lovely!

Colossians 4:5-6 is such a great encourager with faith. Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.
