I am catching up in the blog every day in May challenge.
Day 7, Tuesday: The thing(s) you’re most afraid of
I have a fear of heights over fifty feet, I am scared of bridges of open water, possums, and snakes. Yeah, all little things that I really shouldn’t be afraid of, but I am.
Day 8, Wednesday: A piece of advice you have for others. Anything at all.
My most favorite advice came from a woman I had known my entire life named Georgia. She was the sweetest lady in the world and never said anything bad about anyone. I was going through a little bit of a hard time around the age of sixteen. Georgia could tell that something was wrong so she took me aside one day after church and told me this:
No matter what hardships may come your way always remember that God loves you and so do many others. I want to see you smile. You are too beautiful to not have a smile on your face.
I have always remembered that and from that day I have kept these words in my heart. Georgia passed away recently and I know that her beloved husband Thomas, was running to Heaven’s gate to meet her when she got there.
