It's fitting Julie would be the first person I post about - for 2 reasons. First of all, it's Julie's birthday today! Yeah! Happy Birthday Julie! Hope it was one of your best yet! And second of all, Julie was the first one to tell me that I am an encourager. :)
I first met Julie through Timberline church in Fort Collins. We were in a bible study together. It turned out, we were also both taking classes in nutrition to eventually become RD's. Not only is Julie smart and driven in her career, but she is a woman after God's own heart. I have never known anyone to pray so faithfully and trust in the Lord through any circumstance. We can go months between our conversations on the phone, and she never fails to bring up very specific prayer requests I have shared with her, and ask me how things are going. She inspires me to always treasure prayer - the amazing communication available to us with the Creator of the Universe. Julie, thank you for all the wonderful things you have shared with me and taught me along this journey. You are truly a light to this dark world. Love you!
