The past few weeks have been really rough for talitha cumi.
Our teammate Bethany decided to go home along with a squad leader, Sav.
We love them so dearly, and it was hard to say goodbye to both of them in such a short period of time. With that, since Taitha is a team of 4 now, at the end of the month we have to split up into the other teams.
I’ve been sitting with the Lord and asking a lot of questions. This sort of hurts. I spent so much time building trust with my team and my leader and I feel it being ripped from underneath me.
We have a rooftop to the hotel we are living in for the month. I spent some time looking at the stars the other night, and the Lord reminded me of how vast and mysterious the universe is.
We are so incredibly minuscule in this beautiful universe He was created. Yet, we are His most prized possessions.
The Lord never wants us to hurt. It was never part of His plan for us to go through the tough things in life.
But, because of original sin, these things happen. But, the Lord uses these hard situations and times of hurting and confusion to grow us into the people He has created us to be.
Our part is to actually allow these situations to change us for the BETTER and learn from them, rather than letting them overcome us and drag us down.
We have a choice. Do we allow ourselves to be overcome with fleshly desires and sit in the bad things, or do we move on and change ourselves for the better?
