Sometimes, God takes you to a place you’ve been before and you never thought you’d go again. It’s like this precious gift that He sets in front of you, and as you sit there, you marvel that He gave it to you. He brings life where there was death. He brings hello where there was goodbye. He brings love where you thought love was long gone. He brings acceptance where you thought there was rejection.
Sometimes He just surprises you, and He says, “Everything you know is wrong.”
Am I being cryptic? Yes. But not on purpose. It’s just that God gave me a gift yesterday, and it’s one that blows my mind so wide open that I can’t even put it into words right now. (Uhm, no. I’m not pregnant. And it’s not another book contract.) It’s one that’s had me on the edge of tears most of the afternoon, one I certainly don’t deserve.
It’s one I might marvel at forever.

Whatever it is, I’m happy for you. God likes to throw “surprise blessings” at us. It’s a way to shake us up!
