I’m here.
In Battambang Cambodia.
It’s so surreal.
Arriving in Battambang I felt like I was just going through the motions; not really feeling the Lord’s presence as much as I thought I should be. I then became discouraged, distracted and confused.
I was walking the streets around my home picking up trash and praying to God to show up and give me peace and understanding in this season of confusion and distraction.
And He did. He showed up.
Immediately after praying I began picking up the trash with a happiness in my heart. A happiness that clearly came from the Lord… because who can say touching wet, nasty, green, slimey trash can make you happy?
That story might not seem like a huge revelation but it was exactly what I needed.. and that’s what God does. He gives us exactly what we need. His mercy and strength are sufficient.
“My soul will rejoice in the Lord and delight in His salvation. My whole being will exclaim, ‘Who is like you, O Lord?’ “
Psalm 35:9-10
I’m not too good at the whole blogging thing yet so I put together a little video on some of the things I’ve seen and experienced thus far.
I chose the song “my lighthouse” by rend collective because I think they do a great job explaining my heart in this part of my journey… in my own wrestling and doubts the Lord lead me through and gave me a comforting peace to ride the waves of confusion and discouragement.
thank you all for the support!! Hope you continue to follow my journey!
