Oh, Swaziland. This month has been a rollercoaster of emotions.
One week of peace and feeling more content and satisfied and safe than I have in a long while. A week of praise and rest and service. A week of beautiful sunsets and laughter and vulnerability with my team and house-mates.
The next week was a week of feeling raw, confused, and broken. A week of questions: asking God for purpose, direction, and healing. A week of processing His responses and beginning to find healing and a new identity.
And now this week began with grieving the loss of my sweet "hosanna" Savannah's mother. Hearing that someone you love's worst fear of coming on this journey has come true. Of feeling the emotions of sadness followed by peace.
I'm learning love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control though all situations and emotions but it sure isn't easy or fun…
