Listen to this song!
We arrived in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on December 1st
after traveling by bus from Moldova to Bulgaria and then flying with
connections in Bucharest and Qatar, finally arriving in Bangkok and then
bussing it again up north 10 hours to my new home.
The Lord told me this month would be a month of restoration, revival, and rawness. He told me to prepare my heart and to pay attention to what would come. I had no idea what ministry would look like or if I would really enjoy being here, but God had already planned and perfectly orchestrated the month.
I am working with a new team of girls, most of whom I hadn’t had the chance to build relationships with yet. God told me to be vulnerable with them and let them
see my heart because I have peace and freedom to give. He said to be raw with
them and keep nothing hidden. Be exposed and trust Him. So I’m doing just that.
I’m learning to walk even when I can’t see.
The Father gave me a vision of myself standing in front of a
piece of artwork with my face an inch away from the fresh paint. He said, “What
do you see?” All I could see was some blue-ish green paint. Then He said, “Step
back here and stand by me.” As I stepped back farther away, I saw more
conglomerations of colors and it became beautiful. I started to see the way the
colors were put together actually painted a picture. He said, “Most of the time
you only see what is right in front of you but I always see the bigger picture.
So trust in me. I hold the paintbrush and you know that I make all things beautiful.” I looked again at the picture and realized I was only able to
see a small portion of a giant canvas that represents my life.
So, I walk in faith and I trust even when I cannot see. I
press in for more of what the Father has for me because I know that He is all I
need.
For
in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and
invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have
been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all
things hold together. Colossians
1:16-17
