consumed.

yesterday i received and email saying that  the city i was assigned to is saying they are not going to have a team this summer. talk about bummer. all that after i had already learned how to say it! then i realized what this meant and floods of doubts starting filling my brain...which is already jam packed with a million other things. how could doubt possibly fit?

i started doubting this trip. i started doubting if this really was God's call on my life. all this doubt overcame me. then it hit me. like a ton of bricks peace came over me. its like God reached in and pulled out all my doubts.

i found this verse and found it very fitting.

Lamentations 3:21-23
Yet I call to mind, and therefore I have hope. Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning, great is your faithfulness.


what an awesome truth! the Lord loves us deeply, passionately, and always. praise the Lord we are NOT consumed! how oppressed would we feel if we had the constant feeling of doubt, failure, brokenness weighing on our shoulders.

i am so so glad for the peace that passes all understanding. and cannot imagine life without His great love saving me daily.
