Day 588

Good afternoon!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  Sometimes the most beautiful things come from such a different looking thing in the beginning.  It's crazy.  My first book was called "From the Weeds."  That's how I felt,  from the weeds came a beautiful flower.  Amist all the depression, and anger, and drugs and alcohol...the weeds, can come new life, sobrierty, hope, and joy...a beautiful flower.  God is always working in us, whether we know it or not, changing us, hopefully to be more like Him.  Yes, we have to go through some hard times, and some difficult things to get to be the people He wants us to be, but in the long run, it is so worth it.  And to one day spend eternity with Him, if we have placed Him in our hearts, beyond imaginable.  Well, that's all I have for today!  Have a great one!
