this is what i want to be about. and slowly but surely god is teaching me to be this person. it’s really hard.
but it’s worth it.
today is my second day of working for AIM in Gainesville, GA. i absolutely love it here already and know this is the best place for me to live, grow, and be used. it’s been hard. i’m kind of homeless at the moment (sleeping on couches), and it really makes me uncomfortable. I want to unpack. i want my own bed. i don’t want to depend on other people. I still want to do it on my own. i’m anxious.
“…do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you
will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on (or where you will live). Isn’t life more
than food, and the body more than clothing? But seek first the kingdom
of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry for itself. Each day has enough struggle of its own.” (matthew 6:25, 33-34)

but this is why i came – to learn to be uncomfortable. to learn to trust people, but more importantly to learn to trust God. in the midst of my discomfort, to find rest and peace only in god. to seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and let him take care of the rest.
please pray for me. i know this is worth it, but it’s hard. pray for peace. pray for provision. pray for faith.
