It’s An Honor To Journey Through Life With You

by | Nov 4, 2016 | Five Minute Friday

When you think of the word journey, what comes to mind?

This word feels a bit big for me today. So, I Googled it. I searched for quotes, Bible verses, and sayings. I visited Dictionary.com for its definition.

journey :: traveling from one place to another, usually taking a rather long time; trip; passage or progress from one stage to another

Some days it feels like I’m on the longest journey ever. Yet, on other days the journey feels fleeting.

It shouldn’t be November. I don’t know where September and October went to. But, here we are. And we’re here together.

It’s an honor to journey through life with you.

It’s a great honor, friend. God has crossed our paths at some point, and I thank Him for doing so. It’s no accident we’re in each other’s lives. It’s quite possible you and I have never met in person, and if that’s the case, I hope we can meet in real-life some day. But I am amazed at how God can unite hearts and create friendships through the internet and social media! (He can do anything, can’t He!?) Until that day, we’ll continue journeying together digitally.

Or, maybe you and I see each other often. Maybe we’ve been friends for as far back as we can remember. Or maybe we just met last week. It’s a gift to walk in person through this life with you.

You may think your presence in my life is unimportant, or that it’s small and insignificant. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

I appreciate you and I’m thankful you’re in my life.

You make my journey in this life sweeter. Your presence blesses me. Your words spur me on. You have a way of helping me see the brighter side of life, and you give me oodles of reasons to keep writing.

And, so I will. Thanks to you.

As we journey together, let’s continue to gather here… to extend hope, offer love, and do what we can to help us each become the people God desires us to be.

Thank you for allowing me to journey through life with you!

Blessings!

Julie

You are more than you think you are!
There's a group of special women out there who, for one reason or another, show up to church alone. 

At a former church, an entire row was filled with us women who came without spouses or families, and we created quite a bond. We knew we needed it--and each other.

I get it--it's not so easy to do somedays, walking in alone, sitting by oneself, but every time, God meets me there.

If you went to church by yourself or know someone who did today, I see you. I'm with you. I am praying for you. Keep showing up. Your presence matters more than you know.

Sometimes the most sacred moments don’t look polished. Sometimes they include a book, a lap full of grandsons, and yes—even a finger in a nose.😉

But this? This is legacy.
This is love.
This is what matters right now.🩷

You don’t have to have it all together to make a difference.
Your presence is enough. Your faithfulness is forming something eternal.🌸

Keep showing up, even when life feels messy. God is using it all. 🙌

Here's a dose of encouragement for your day.

Keep being you.
Keep showing up. 
Keep making a difference. 

You're doing better than you think you are!

The voice in your head doesn’t get the final say.
Let’s trade the lies for truth today—and speak to ourselves the way God does.

This is your reminder that God doesn’t require perfection—just your presence.

You don’t have to crush every task or look Pinterest-perfect doing it.
You’re doing holy work, even in messy buns and yesterday’s mascara. 💁‍♀️

My good friends since 5th grade, Karen and Sheila, joined me on the podcast this week. When I asked them what suggestions they had for someone who's struggling with negative self-talk or degrading thoughts, Sheila shared her wisdom in saying to look for the positive. There's always something positive. But sometimes we get fixed on the negative instead. We need to remember the positive. 

Isn't this true? What are you focused on today? The negative or the positive? What positive can you remember today?

What do you do to change your mindset when it needs some changing?

My friends, Karen Wacker and Sheila Schulte, joined me on the podcast this week, and they both shared their wisdom and inspiration. I love what Karen said about what she does to change her mindset. This might encourage you today, too.
