50 Years of Grace: What I’ve Learned on This Beautiful Journey 💛
✨ “What can I say unto my Lord? All I have to say is thank You, Lord!” ✨
Today I celebrate 50 years of life, love, growth, and God’s unwavering grace.
And honestly? It feels surreal.
As I reflect on this milestone birthday, I see not just memories—but miracles. I see prayers answered, storms weathered, dreams fulfilled, and lessons that only time, love, and faith could teach me.
There were days I wasn’t sure I’d make it. Moments I felt stretched beyond my limits. But through it all, God has been faithful. Every step of the way.
I still remember learning how to read as a little girl… walking into school with butterflies, stepping onto my college campus, saying “I do,” holding my children for the first time, and watching dreams I once only whispered to God become reality.
Today, I stand grateful, joyful, and full of expectation for what’s still to come.
💫 5 Lessons from 5 Decades
1️⃣ God’s Timing is Always Worth the Wait
Even in seasons that felt slow or silent—He was working. His timing has always been perfect.
2️⃣ Love Others Deeply, But Don’t Lose Yourself
Whether as a wife, mom, friend, or leader—loving others well starts with loving God and being rooted in who you are.
3️⃣ Take the Leap—Even If You’re Afraid
Some of the most meaningful moments in my life came from doing it scared, but doing it anyway.
4️⃣ Seasons Change, But God Doesn’t
Through every up and down, His character, His Word, and His love remained the same.
5️⃣ Life is a Gift—Live it Fully & Faithfully
Celebrate the small moments. Cherish the people around you. Take the trip. Wear the outfit. Laugh loudly. Give God thanks every step of the way.
