Five Minute Friday! Growing

It's Friday! which means we write for five minutes about a topic, and we don't edit! It doesn't matter what comes out, we just write. :) Here's the official place: The Gypsy Mama, and you can link up there to share your five minutes and encourage others! :D

So for today: Growing.

Go!

Growing. A perfect topic for me this morning. Today I feel beautiful. This is especially nice today, because I am going to cut my hair. I believe God wants me to. I asked him how to live more like He created me to live, how to find my identity solely in Him, and I clearly heard "cut your hair." I would never in a million years suggest this to myself. I argued and said no and argued some more and I have finally surrendered. I am growing to learn about my identity in Christ alone. And the best part is, hair grows. My hair will grow back. (should) My heart is growing. Today feels like an especially grow-y day, because it's wet outside, and you can just see the trees drinking up that water. (I love rain!) Also because I'm doing new things today! So I feel like I'm literally growing, stretching a bit today. It's crazy. I'm actually getting excited about this hair thing. I've talked to some women about it in the past week, to make sure it's right, and one said an interesting thing- to make sure it is not to earn God's approval, but rather to draw closer to Him. Anyways, the word growing makes me all excited, for all these things that are springing up in my life. :)

stop.

Also, it's technically not morning anymore. woops. but close enough. I thought about this post this morning, just didn't have the time to write.

Thanks for reading!
