So here I am. Up in the mountains starring at God‘s magnificent creation and I’m still so overwhelmed and stressed. With everything happening here, dealing with so many different personalities, being in so much pain, trying to keep it all together (I am failing miserably), my only option is to sit and praise because even though I’m tired, in pain, and stressed I am also so so blessed! If y’all could see this view it is unbelievable! I have family and friends back home rooting for me and praying for me. I have a God that is so so so much bigger than my pain, my irritation, my frustration and the craziness that is happening all around. This morning I woke up and I was just so done with the day if I can be honest. Then at breakfast one of our leaders said that we were gonna go stand on the side of the mountain and just sing praises over Quito. I’m gonna be real I was like uhhh ok so we go and the first song wrecks me. I’m crying/singing/snoting all over the place. Then the song I’ll give thanks by housefires V btw it’s a whole bop!! Anyway it pops into my head the part where it goes “why should I worry, Gods not worried” and I felt so convicted why am I worried? Why am I taking this place for granted? Why am I wishing away my time here? I need to be in the moment and let the Lord work through and in me. Yes it’s hard. Yes I’m tired. Yeah I might be in pain but Yes I do serve a God who is bigger than all of that and that’s something I can rest in. Also sorry this is kind of all over the place but so am I right now lol. Thanks for taking the time to read this. I love you all bunches!
