About two weeks ago I hit my head on my bunk bed which resulted in a concussion and a fun adventure to the hospital. I wanted to take time to share how God has been changing my heart and mind through this recovery process! 

 

Journal entry from February 8th at 7:10AM

“Good morning Father. I know you are constantly with me, I know that you’re always here, but lately it feels like I’ve been missing you. Usually I look for you in the beautiful mountains, the smiles of my squadmates, the morning sunshine, in the way you move through my team and I at ministry, in my continuous joy, and in worshiping through music with friends. I’ve been missing you because I haven’t had these things in a while. I’ve been sitting alone resting and recovering. But now I understand. Now I see you sitting next to me, I see you in front of me holding my hand when I don’t feel well, I see you encouraging me to let go and just rest in your presence Lord. I will always see you in beautiful landscapes and the joy of others but how I also can feel you walking along side me in my weakness, I can feel you cheering me on. I am done holding on the these expectations about what I need to be or what I need to do. All that matters is that I’m your daughter!”
