Thank you letter to God for 2007

Dear God
This last year was a year of letting go for me letting go of my will and taking on yours. It was a painful reality for me to realize that you might not move my sister, Bobby and Aaron here and I am grateful that you showed me they are right where they are supposed to be I still have hope that someday they might be here but if not that’s OK. I thank you for your grace and mercy you have on me as I continue to transform into the woman of God you intend for me to be. I thank you for a daughter that is so smart, sweet, full of life and such a blessing to be around, for a son who is my joy and who stretches me and blesses my heart every day and for my most amazing husband and for his unconditional love and support he gives me daily.
Lord thank you for preparing my heart about Brian being an elder before Todd called and said “So how do you feel about this” I am so proud of Brian and the man of God he is turning in to. What a privilege to be his wife.
I have realized more and more this past year what a mighty God we serve and what a blessing and privilege it is to serve.
I am still in awe of what the Lord has done with Calvary Chapel Surprise and how we have grown so fast and that Brian and I were called to be part of it. This church and its people are amazing and such a blessing to us.
Thank you for teaching me that JOY does come in the morning. Lord as I reflect on the last year and all the joy, sadness and growth that it held, I thank you for all of it. It was a growing experience.
Thank you for 2007 and I look forward to all you have for me in 2008.
I love you Lord! You are so faithful.
Your very blessed daughter
Tammy
