City On A Hill.

You are the light of the world - like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden.
Matthew 5:14

Hey there everybody!

I realize that I dropped off the face of the earth after my last update. This is due to lack of consistent internet in Thailand and the utter chaos of life abroad.

As you have probably assumed, I am now back on Canadian soil and have been processing post DTS. Trying to figure out where I fit, where God wants me, the next path for my life to take a stroll down.

God has radically shaken up my life. When I review my past I feel so removed from all of the things that I've done, all of the things that I have been through in such a way that it's as if I was gutted and then filled back up with everything I was lacking before.
Peace.
Joy.
Hope.
Trust.
Love.

Life is not an easy thing to go through, particularly after returning from an experience as life changing as the one that I have just been through. I have spent a good chunk of my life trying to figure out my niche, what I'm good at, where I belong.

What I've come to discover is that I belong in the arms of Jesus. I belong beside him, hand in hand, in step towards the promises that he has laid before me. If I've got that, what else do I need? I am exactly where I need to be.

My prayers over the last six months have been answered in ways that I would never have been able to fathom before my DTS experience, and the best part of that is that I rest assured in the confidence that my prayers will continue to be answered. Maybe not when I ask. Maybe not how I imagined. But God's timing and God's plans always are SO much better than anything I could have picked out for myself.

I am blessed far beyond any words than I could express. God has rained his love and truth down on me and my heart could not be more thankful to be past the season of drought it was in for so long.

Thank you, whoever is reading this, for investing your time into reading about my life and all that God has done for me. I'm going to continue to write about my life and the adventures God is going to continue to take me on because I know that they are not over and I am SO okay with that.

God bless.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses let us THROW OFF EVERYTHING that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles and let us RUN WITH PERSEVERANCE the race marked out for us.
Hebrews 12:1
