It's Amazing How God Works

This summer has been a whirlwind.
Actually, it's kind of been this massive tornado that rips through everything and leaves all of the strewn bits everywhere and all the remnants are just chaos.

But isn't that just the way.

For months now I've been asking God what He wants from me, but I haven't really been getting any answers. And just when I think I found the right path - bam! Tornado hits.
After a while, that pattern really gets to a person. At least, it's been getting to me.

Last night at young adults, one of the questions we discussed in Bible Study in preparation for Sunday's service was when God has used the meagre resources in your life and multiplied them for the good of others. Various people shared stories, and I even shared one of my own. But today has definitely been an example of God's work and using those minimal resources for good.

As I mentioned, this summer's been quite the storm. But today it's like God came and gave me this giant hug and everything just went calm. Which, while sometimes is terrifying, right now, is just beautiful. Everything is working out. I've got a roof over my head, time to spend volunteering, enough to eat, people who love and care about me, and so many more wonderful blessings.

It's so easy to look at things, especially in the storm, and say that everything is terrible. But this has definitely been a lesson for me about hope, and a reminder of those blessings that are so often forgotten.

God's got us all covered. Each and every one of us.


And now it's time for a new journey... God Bless, all! :)
