What can I say? Life is good. I have a beautiful girlfriend who loves me, a job, that while isn't the best in the world, provides me with enough money to get by, great family, and most importantly, I have my faith back.
Life is good.
I took Molly to the parkway on Friday. We walked for a little bit, sang for a bit longer, and cuddled against the backdrop of the Virginia mountains. I could not imagine having a more perfect time. She told me she loves me, right as the first calm shadows of night began to drive away the last rays of sunshine. I'll never forget the sight: her eyes searching mine for response, her face soft with the fading light, the river flowing soundlessly behind her and the mountains standing behind even that...and the sound of her voice saying, "I love you" is something I'll never forget.
Isn't she beautiful?
It's been years since I've been happy. No matter how well my job or friends and family were going it just never seemed to be enough. I had never felt whole. My world was a thousand different justifications for my sin and another thousand reasons why my life wasn't worth living. But my God, You were with me through all of it, even though I was angry with You and didn't want to acknowledge Your presence in my life. I'll never have the words to express just how sorry and disgusted I am with myself. Thank You my Lord...thank You for all the opportunities and the blessings that You've given to me.
