Lessons learned in Chaos.
24 hours of chaos in the beautiful and bustling streets of NYC.
We were initially scheduled to sit in on a live recording of David Jeremiah, but flight delays due to weather prevented us from attending. After getting beyond the hustling cab drivers and traffic, we explored the city and made the best of our trip.
I’m so grateful for the chaos that teaches me lessons that can only be learned in unexpected situations. I used to gripe and grow discouraged when plans shifted, but Contentment will keep your heart and mind undisturbed even when you can’t make sense of things.
A few things God is teaching me this year are the power of waiting, accountability, and character checks. Waiting for His justice through revelation. While leaning into
Accountability and forward motion, when I could have said or done things better. Apologizing when wrong while holding your character under the light of God’s Word and Will for our life. I’m far from perfect, and I’ve made so many choices in my past that I deeply regret before Christ. SIN is destructive, and it destroys your sense of self while also setting you up with consequences that will follow you forever. I've learned this the hard way.😩
Thank God for grace and a better future, still. You are not your past mistakes. Don't you hold your choices over your head, and don't allow anyone else to either. Be free.
I sit in this airport, fueled by espresso and the longing for my bed. I can’t help but feel a deep sense of gratitude- for everything. Life will be as good as you believe it to be; how willing you are to work toward better, and how much you are willing to let go of trusting that God sees and He truly does know. May you always remember that God always has a plan in a plan.
Be encouraged,
“Great peace have they which love thy law: And nothing shall offend them.”
Psalm 119:165 KJV
