47 minutes

Last night I went to Austin Stone with my love and my roommate, Tayler. It was a beautiful night. Literally and spiritually--inside and out. I just want to jump up and down all night...

so I did...

in my head.

I don't know if you've ever experienced joy before, but if you haven't you are missing out. You feel like laughing and crying and singing and wailing and dancing and you're speechless all at the same time. You know why? Because you can't really explain that supernatural feeling. So it comes out--it just comes out in some random form. In my head, I just kept saying, "Wow..wow.....wooooow....wow...WOW."

For me, I just can't believe how lucky I am. How fortunate I am to be called a daughter of the Creator. I feel lucky that He uses me. I feel lucky that He let's me in on what He's doing. I feel lucky that He let's me see it. I feel lucky that I don't have to feel guilty for giving hardly anything back to someone who has given my everything. I feel lucky that I don't have to feel guilty for the stuff that I never could get right growing up and the stuff that I'm still messing up right now. I feel lucky that He keeps giving. Oh, He takes away, but He gives and gives and gives too.

All this to say that every time I go into the Union bathroom I think to myself, "I really love this hand soap." It smells like almonds.

I want to give more back and I'm starting today.
