Happy Sunday, dear readers, and happy post number one-hundred! I cannot believe that a little over four years ago, I started this blog.
I remember feeling really far away from Him, and I felt like my faith needed a complete makeover. So, I talked to my big (sorority sister in Phi Lamb) and we found our way to Overflow at OSU. Overflow is at a local church, where all you do is worship with music. You can pray, you can dance in the isle, and you can just soak up the surroundings.
Hence, Overflowed with Mercy. Also, inspired by Psalm 23:5.
More importantly, I wanted to keep the theme of this blog personal and centered around my faith in my Savior. I toyed around with the idea of turning this into a beauty, fashion, hair tutorial, etc. blog, but it just didn't seem like me. Mainly because I'm not an expert in beauty, fashion, hair tutorials, or anything of the like.
I wanted to be unique, yet be able to relate to anyone who is in need of encouragement. It may not be perfect, and I may not know all of the answers, but it's mine. It's completely personal, honest, and raw. I didn't want to sugarcoat anything. And that, in itself, is scary enough.
I don't know what the future holds, or what to expect in the next four years, but I do know that whatever God throws at me, I can handle. Whatever He puts in my path, it's on purpose. Just because everyone around you is getting hitched and having babies doesn't mean it's not going to happen for you. Just because you put yourself out there and find a guy who you think is Prince Charming, and turns out to be just an idiot in tin foil, doesn't mean you're not going to find him.
Have faith. Never lose hope. Trust in God. Everything will work out for the greater good.
