One truth about God which I continue to discover anew is that he has more for us than we can imagine. His plans far exceed our plans, and his grace makes possible so much more than we can envision. In other words, God’s promises mean I always have something to look forward to.
I can’t see as much when I’m climbing the mountain as I can from the top. Just remember this: I am climbing the mountain and one day I’ll reach the top. One day I’ll be able to stand and look out over all the valleys and it will become clear.
This summer I have finally begun to grasp what faith really is: believing, not with my head or my mouth or out of habit, but believing with my whole life.
I walk by faith, not by sight.
Allison, I love you. You inspire me. I cannot imagine how much you were forced to go through this summer and to see you still seeking the Lord and wanting to follow him MORE instead of less is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI literally cannot wait for this upcoming year and to see where God takes each of us individually and as a community group. (although we are split into two, I will always consider us one cg).
Stay strong you now have both fathers looking down on you and both would be very proud.
