{Be Encouraged} My Favorite Things About Delight
As some of you might know, we are coming up on the first birthday of the Delight and Be blog! On January 1st, 2013 the Delight blog was launched and many, MANY blog posts later we are now almost to the one year point! What an amazing adventure and experience it has been to be a part of the Delight blogging team! To commemorate this first year of Delight, I decided I would tell you my top three favorite things about Delight! Here we go!
1. This blog (and the wonderful women who write these posts). It has been such an honor to write for Delight in this past year and I have been so encouraged by all of the other women who have poured there time and thoughts into making this blog great! It is not often that you get to collaborate with so many talented and thoughtful people and it has truly been a blessing! I would encourage each of you to go read the bio’s of the Delight and Be editors and get to know them better – they are amazing!
2. The Community. The Delight community has grown so much in the last year and it has been so fun to watch the girls get to know each other and really pray for each other and build one another up. There are moments of silly and moments of somber and there is always someone there to talk with you if you need to talk. It has truly been a testament to God’s goodness and faithfulness to watch how he has taken girls from all over the country (and world) and has formed close knit friendships!
3. The Retreats. I am very blessed to be able to say that I have been at 3 of the Delight retreats and I can also say that I have grown and learned so much through each of them! I am so excited to see how God is going to work through retreats in the coming years and use them to show his love and care to some wonderful young women.
So those are my three favorite things but I could go on and on about each of those points. The reason I wanted to mention them today though is so that you can see a little glimpse into what God has been doing in Delight in this past year! God has been so faithful and so good and has blessed Delight in ways that are hard to even explain or understand! Please be praying with us as we go into our second year of Delight and please celebrate with us this first birthday!! Happy Birthday Delight and Be!!
