(In order to catch up on my reflections, I decided to write one post per series, at least until I am all caught up).
The series on growing came at a pivotal time in my life. I felt stuck, uncertain of the next step... you know, the feeling you get when you already have the answer, but you are just too scared to actually do anything about it. So, I prayed. I prayed for growth, as painful as it was. One thing I realized throughout the series is that no matter how inconvenient, untimely, tedious it may be, growing is simply necessary.
It's only been a few months since I started praying for continued growth, but I can see the seeds started to give fruits. I can see the changes inside of me, and the effect it has on my family, friends and community. I don't know how long this period will last, but I really like to think of growing as a process... whether lifelong, or just for a season.
Although the series on growth has been over for a few months, I faced my test last week. God's timing is always impeccable. I think I passed, I am not sure. I am not even sure there was a pass/fail grade involved... All I know is that I feel at peace with some of the decisions I have struggled with. It's only taken me a couple of years! HAHA!
God is good!
EED

ELOM strikes again for God. This is one of my favorites, strikes at the core of my faith, gives me hope even now.
Your love never fails.....
You stay the same through the ages.
Your love never changes
There may be pain in the night,
but joy comes in the morning..
When the oceans rages,
I don't have to be afraid
because I know its OK,
because your love never fails.
You make All things work together for my good
What else is there to hope for? Really.
He is good....Great is our God.
