At the beginning of 2016, I started this blog because I felt led to share more of my story with others. As an introvert, sharing personal information about myself does not come naturally to me, but God continued to prompt me to write and share. So I did. Forty-three blogs later, I've come to the end of 2016, and I realized something pretty amazing. My hope and prayer has always been that God would use these blogs to encourage others, and while that may have happened, He has actually used these blogs to encourage me. Re-reading my blogs has reminded me that I can trust God in the present and with my future, because He has always been faithful and loving in the past. I have been reminded that joy and pain can co-exist and that we weren’t meant to experience either alone. Looking back, here are my top 10 (most read) blogs of 2016. I hope they encourage you, and I look forward to writing more in 2017.

I just read all 10 of those blogs and was encouraged all over again! Yes, tears down my cheeks as I once again am reminded of the incredible love of our Father who cares about everything in our lives. I hope that you will continue to share your blog with many!! God is truly using you. Thank you Julie!!!

I'm so glad you were encouraged. And yes, it's comforting to know that God cares about all the little details of our lives. Thanks for taking the time to read and for your kind words - you encouraged me. :)
