I am DONE with Pretty!!!


Hallelujah!!!




I have been journaling and editing this blog post for almost 3 hours today (don't worry, my precious husband is home today and helping with kids)! Because I decided my journaling for today was for Jesus only, I deleted all my ramblings of where I am. In my prayers, writing, and flowing of tears, I was reminded of this song above by Heather Williams. Every time I hear these lyrics and her screams of "Hallelujah," I fall apart as I am WAILING out loud my Hallelujahs to the Father right along with her! It is a not a sound that is angelic to the human ear. It is UGLY, LOUD, and SOUL VOMITING sounds. I want to LAVISH LOVE and GRATITUDE to my Daddy above! I NO LONGER want it to be pretty, I want it RAW and REAL and SURRENDERING!


I am DONE...I MEAN D-O-N-E with pretty!!!


HALLELUJAH!!!
