Graduation Revelation

Ephesians 3:20

20 -21God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us. (The Message)

There are a lot of things that we know yet sometimes we don’t have a full grasp of until the picture is painted very clearly before your eyes. Yesterday on my graduation day, that picture became crystal clear. Sitting at the dinner table surrounded by family and friends who have become my family; for a moment I did not see their faces, I simply saw their love. In that moment I was emotionally overwhelmed.

I know that I am blessed and yesterday was a wonderful visual representation of my past, present and future. My village…..My parents and other family members made deposits into my life that fed me with confidence and security. My siblings and cousins poured into me and now allow me to pour into them. My girls and I have been able to see each other bloom into the phenomenal women that we are! We got some scrapes and bruises on the way; but they are part of our story. The future spoke that we are impacting their lives. Texts, emails and phone calls, from those who couldn't attend but still wanting to send their love.

If I could bottle that day up and savor every moment………

As Ephesians 3:20 states, God is able to do far more than our finite minds could ever dream.

20Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, (KJV)
