"I feel like a defective model, like I came off the assembly line flat-out (screwed-up) and my parents should have taken me back for repairs before the warranty ran out."
~ Elizabeth Wurtzel

I saw this quote the other day and just had to laugh. This is EXACTLY how I feel most days! I feel like I have been sick or something in my life has been royally messed up since the day I was born. It seems like the word 'normal' does not apply to me or my life...it never has. *sigh*

But then I remember, I am a child of the Most High King!! He created me in His image. So, I wasn't made to be 'normal'! I am special! There is no one else on this earth exactly like me. He has given me my own special gifts and talents. In Psalm 139, it says that I was 'fearfully and wonderfully' made and that all of my days were ordained for me and written in His book before even one of them came to be. How awesome is that to think about? The Lord has also promised to work ALL THINGS out for good, because I love Him. (Romans 8:28) I know that the Lord has a plan for my crazy, often confusing and mixed up, life - even if I can not understand it right now. (Jeremiah 29:11) I most definitely trust what He says because the Lord does not lie. One day, all of the things I've gone through will work together for good and will bring glory to the Lord. Remembering this each day is very reassuring and helps me to keep on keeping on.

I hope you all are having a wonderfully blessed weekend! See you soon!
