Radiant

"You are the light of the world--like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden". -Matthew 5:14

One of the most rewarding results of following Christ, is the ability to look back and see how far you've come! In our lives, relationships, faith and hearts, we know that God's hand has been apart of it all, because His light is undeniable.

Last weekend, we celebrated our 4th anniversary of spiritual growth, friendships and various accomplishments. We had the honor of gleaning from 3 amazing women of God and learning, from their experiences, how to hear and seek God's voice, even amidst distractions, internal short comings, concerns for the future and our desire for greatness in the present. You see, we are all on a journey, so none of our stories are complete yet! God is writing it all down and planning it all out, perfectly, all we need to do is trust Him and obey!

More and more, I am learning that being a Christian isn't about getting it all right, but it's more so about trusting that God's hand is in it all and that He will fulfill His promises, in due time. Perfection isn't possible until we see Jesus, but even in our imperfections, we can still shine!

We are called to be radiant, because our lives should reflect the radiance of Christ's unfailing love! It's not meant to produce fear of messing up, but rather encouragement that you are never alone! With each friendship we encounter, every scripture we read and any growth we receive, we can live out this faith in complete faith that we are becoming the women that God has purposed for us to be. This includes you! Wherever you are, whoever you and whatever you find yourself experiencing, even at this very moment, you have promise and purpose and the impacts of your life are meant to shine brightly for the whole world to see! None of us are exceptions to that calling! Christ's love is for us all; we simply have to embrace it and believe it!
If you need a friend, we are here. If you need encouragement, we hope that you won't hesitate to reach out to use, because we love you! Thank you for joining us in our journey! Blessings to you on yours!
