Ringing In the New Year

Good Bye 2018... Hello 2019!!! 
2018 was most definitely a MONUMENTAL year for me, when I look back at all the Lord has done I am in awe, total awe of HIM!!!! 

As I LOVE to say it’s My Story for HIS Glory!!!


My Bible Verse this year was Exodus 34:10 (NIV) which says, “Then the Lord said: “I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the Lord, will do for you.”

I love to personalize my Bible verses to include my name and WOW did I ever see God do wonders in my life that amaze even ME!!!

I wrote the list below to share with a friend who lives in another State so she could see what my life has been like this past year and as I typed it, I see miracle after miracle after miracle that God performed for me - why? Because I’m special??? Not especially, but because He LOVES to do the unthinkable when we PRAY BIG!!!

Even if, like a few years ago, it felt like God was doing nothing at all in my life I still praised Him for what I couldn’t see but believed that HE would do miracles in the years to come!!!

This year was the culmination of years & years & years of my prayers, believing when I couldn’t see His hand, I would trust His heart and His timing!

As we close 2018, I pray that whether you didn’t see much of God’s hand in your life or whether it was the best year of your life, we will praise HIM because HE is good and deserves ALL of our praise!!

As I enter this brand new year in 2019 I’ve already been praying Exodus 34:10 again and I’m expecting miracles, miracles for friends, miracles for family, and yet again miracles for MEEEEEE!!!!



Let’s Dream BIG in 2019 
knowing God will answer bold prayers and do the unthinkable!!!
