I grew up in a little town called Flippin, Arkansas. I loved living there, in the heart of the Ozarks, nestled near some of the prettiest country God ever created. I grew up fishing and swimming in the crystal clear water of Bull Shoals lake and the White and Buffalo Rivers. I absolutely adore my family, and we have always been extremely close. I have three younger siblings, two sisters and a brother, and two very incredible parents. I'm a daddy's girl all the way, and my mom is one of my best friends. I've always had a very strong church family, and have been blessed beyond compare. Clearly, I was never really had the "let's blow this joint" attitude about growing up and leaving town, but it was always very clear to me that my big dreams were the kind that needed to be chased after.
I have been through a lot more than I could sit down and write in a day, but my hope is that throughout this, I will come to know myself much better, and that those who wish to/ are led to see, will come to know me and my King more fully. This is the beginning of my light in the darkness. Right now, its just a little candle, but all you need to start a raging fire is a single flame. So, I suppose we shall see what's in store for us.
Love, Strength, and Wisdom,
Lacy
Lacy, I can remember you writing all the way from Arkansas to New Mexico on our MFuge trip two years ago and knew then you were a girl who love to put her thoughts into words.
