Hey all, I miss the fellowship tons and I started out the summer super excited about this blog but I haven't contributed because I haven't had anything nice or encouraging to say; no revelations, no metaphores, just a lot of frustration and isolation etc. But God is so good, you know? He really does provide, and in a dry and weary land, he is the water. Think about this: it's guarenteed that there will come seasons/situations that look devoid of God, like he is tots MIA, or at least doesn't know what he's doing. There is no gaurentee that these seasons will be short (40 years is a familiar number, yeah?) But God is sovereign. Over everything, every one at every moment. Do you actually beleive that? Because he says it's true. You don't know what he's doing? Don't sweat it; he does. No really: don't sweat it. I think one thing I'm finding is that this whole "I just wish I knew what God was doing" attitude is moot, because if I actually trust that he IS doing something, than who cares?
2 Corinthians 5:7 "We live by faith, not by sight"
Cheers and Love. Consider this a virtual hug <3
Liz, the blog is a place to write about ANYTHING, sorrows and frustrations and worries included. But this was a gem nonetheless. Thanks for it. :)
