God allowed me to see some things today. Not actual things, but how He's faithfully answered my prayers about a few things. This one today kind of crept up on me. Here goes: I've prayed for a long time for a church home and family that truly understand what God's mission is for us. I have prayed that He would put me in a place whose heart beats passionately for the things that His heart beats passionately for. And He did just that. I am in awe, as again, He did it better than I even asked for.
Today my church family prayed for me. The whole gathering of people at both services covered me in prayer and love, and launched me out to return to Haiti later this week. And I know they'll keep praying, 'cause that's what they do.
God allowed me to see a root of unforgiveness that has lodged itself in my life. A friend asked if there was anything I needed to repent of, and I told her I didn't know. Then this morning, I realized that God had allowed me to literally come face to face with the person I have not forgiven. It took 2 days, but I put the pieces together, and am asking God to root that unforgiveness out. I'm asking Him to replace that with a heart of love and compassion for this person.
I'm thankful God keeps working on me. And in me. And through me.
Off to bed. Just a little while longer until I'm in Haiti!
