SURPRISE!

I LOVE surprises.

Good ones, of course. Big or small. For a special occasion, or no reason! There is nothing like the thrill of being surprised.

How do I know I've got a good guy? He continually surprises me!

This week I had the honor of speaking at FCA at Campbell University. Those of you who know me know that public speaking scares the daylights out of me! I was feeling anxious and nervous beforehand. After I spoke last night, the nerves were still getting to me. I was feeling unsettled because a few people told me I had done well but I was still feeling unsure. This morning, I get a text saying I was incredible and I wasn't sure what inspired that comment so I asked. He responded my sermon from last night and I jokingly said he didn't know what I said. He then tells me that he felt bad about not being there and asked one of our friends to secretly record me so he could listen to it. I thought he was teasing me but he referenced my opening line and I was shocked! I couldn't believe he found a way to be there and support me because he knew what a challenge it was for me as well as doing it in a way that would not make me nervous.

I am one blessed lady, that's for sure!

I think I've got a winner on my hands!
