Rain…Rain can be interpurted many different ways. For some it is just percipitation, others something wet that just happens to fall from the sky, for some it is a sign of a miserable day. As far back as I can remember I have always loved rain, which living the first 9 years of my life in Washington State its probably good i loved rain so much. I love the word, I love the smell, I love the feeling of it falling on my face, I love everything about it…(as long as its not cold). For me rain brings life, it brings freedom, it brings peace…
As much as I love the rain that falls from the sky, I am also learning to appreciate the rain that comes though the storms of life. I am learning that to really seek God and feel him even when I feel a distance. It is during these last few months as I have truly begun to seek God’s will for my life that he continues to bring these things of the past to the surface. As they come to the surface it is not always easy for me to deal with them, or to rely on others to help me through them, but who i am really learning to turn to during these times is God.
This past month has really been me praying to God and seeking him about intamacy with him and what that looks like. It is also been about seeking God about abandonment in my life and for my life and what that looks like for my life. It is so funny to think that at the begining of January when I left the United States i had my ideas of what this year would look like and he has totally shattered those ideas. This year is not about me doing anything, but it is completely about God breaking me, then puting me back together, and God using me to further his Kingdom, all so that his name may be glorified.
I am finding the more that i am seeking him, the more i am finding who i am, and the more i see him using me in ways i would have never thought before. It is through the rain that I feel God the most now. Where before when the storms of life would come i would feel so distant, now i feel a closeness a new dependance on him. I love the Rain. I love this newly given Peace from God. I love that even with all I have been through that God has chosen me, and blessed me to be where i am at this moment. That God has chosen to use me to further his Kingdom.
I want to Thank You all for your Love, prayers, words of encouragement, and financial support so far. I am still in need of an additional $4,000 by April 1st to be able to continue on this journey, and to continue to Bring God’s Kingdom to the World. Please consider partnering with me. It is because of God using you already that I have been able to get to where i am today. So please prayerfully consider comming along side of me to further God’s Kingdom.
