Letter to Self, November 24 2018

Hey Sweet.

Don't be afraid of being sweet. The world needs that. Take a deep breath. You take a lot seriously, and that's good, but don't let it paralyze you. Remember Mary. Remember what she chose, what was better. Sit at Jesus' feet and listen.

Pray. Love well. Don't lose hope - you will be blown away by the provision of God. Yes, monetary. But also relational, and spiritual. You will see lives transformed. You will love more deeply than you think possible right now. You will be given strength for every new day, every necessary endeavor.

Be humble. Be teachable. Don't close off or get proud. Your friends are there for you. Your family is there for you. Even strangers are, sometimes. And God is, always with you, your Emmanuel.

Keep creating, keep basking in beauty. Keep finding silence. Keep learning practical skills. Keep traveling. Keep open to new people, new experiences, and to the hard work and dedication of commitment to the familiar places and people.

"Don't try to swallow the ocean, keep doing one day." Don't give up on romance. Speak truth in love. Be an encourager. Be real. Dance. Get outside. Be a mother to anyone who needs one.



Quote: "One Day", Christa Wells
