Cheers to 40 years of becoming

40 years around the sun.

I’m amazed at how many times I’ve had to embrace the evolving version of myself. I am learning to love myself in this phase—as my body has changed, as my spirit has strengthened, and as my understanding has deepened. I like myself here.

If I can sum up my greatest lesson, it is this:

I have learned to trust God’s plan for my life.

I see God in everything that has happened. Even my darkest days were divinely ordered for where I am now.

I trust that everything happening to me is actually happening for me.
That it’s all working together for my highest good—even when I can’t yet see it.

This journey has stretched me, grown me, and grounded me in ways I never imagined.

I’ve come to understand that we experience pain so we can truly know the depth of joy. That sometimes we are called to wait so we can fully appreciate the miracle of arrival. That seasons change, and they are all necessary for our development. And through it all, God has never left me nor forsaken me.

In these 40 years, I’ve learned to trust—
to trust the journey, to trust the timing, to trust the outcome,
and to trust that this too is working for my good.

We are divinely aligned—even in this connection.

I’m so grateful—not just for my life—
but for the opportunity to walk alongside you in yours.

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey.

Here’s to 40 years.

Love,
Adrianne
