Fresh beginnings.
Hi friends and family! I decided to write my first blog today on Easter Sunday! He has risen! Praise!!! For those who don’t know me. My name is Gabrielle Gansle but people call me gabs or gabby! I’m from Alpharetta Georgia and am a senior! I love my cat who’s name is Butter. I love going to Passion city church at 5 pm. I also LOVE music. So I’m sure you’re wondering why I called this” Fresh Beginnings”. Recently about a month ago I had my whole life flipped around. My house burned down. And I’m sure you like WHAT. Yep. And I have had tons and tons of people ask” How are you” “What do you need”. And it’s crazy because it’s like. what are you supposed to say? I’m fine, perfectly happy or ill be okay. But to be honest I wasn’t fine at first. I was a complete wreck! And would cry and cry and ask God why me? I had a friend offer to bring me to her lake house which is one of my favorite places. And I realized that I’m going to get through this and that God has got me. And he does everything for a reason. Then a few days after I had come back. I found out my grandmother had passed away. So then I was back at square one with my emotions. Asking again and again, why me? What did I do? And it kept me up for nights. I like to journal a lot and read the bible in times of doubt or stressful times. But I couldn’t because it burned and I lost it. Thankfully I had my life group leader give me a journal and a brand new bible. And that’s when I realized that I am going to use this time/worry and make it into a new and brand new start. A fresh start I say. I’m going to use this to get everything new and create new memories, brand new notes and fill this new bible with memories. A girl named Corryn that I LOVE and ADORE was on ft with me at 3 am one night while I was crying and she told me God doesn’t give us things we can’t handle. So that’s how I’m looking at it now. God did this for a reason! For what reasons I’m not sure. And I love that she said that because it put everything in a whole new perspective. That’s why I LOVE that God has given me this opportunity to go on the race and serve. I will be completely away from any “drama” “social media” and any worries. And that God put this in my life for a reason and put the most amazing squad members in my life.
