Desiring A Promise

Since I was 13 I have had a pact with God to stay pure my entire life. To the best of my ability, I have kept that promise the whole time. Of course, the world can subject you to things you wouldn't subject yourself to. But when you keep your mind on Christ and your eyes and heart off of what is evil, you are good to go.

God told me a couple years ago that He was going to bless me more than I could imagine and bring me all of the desires of my heart because of my faithfulness. The beginning of a new year means a little more to me this go round. I have this feeling deep inside that some of those desires I have, those promises yet fulfilled, will be available to me starting next year (1 and a half hours from where I am right now, to be exact). I can hardly wait...literally. I feel like a new chapter is about to be unfolded. The new year comes in, and then my birthday only a few days after. Excitement for all things new is present in my heart.

    I can't wait to see the treasures HE has for you.
