i was so encouraged by our conversation yesterday
especially talking about God and our summers
i asked you what the biggest thing you learned about God/life/people was this summer
and you said “oh wow” and took some time to think about it
you finally looked at me and said that there were two things
first, that no matter what you’re going through
or how much you don’t think or feel that God is with you, He is
and He’s not just there walking alongside you
He’s carrying you
and the second thing was to look out for false teachers of any kind
but the thing that stood out to me
and that made me tear up a little bit
was the image of God carrying us through the hardest parts of life
and even when we don’t see him, feel him, or think he’s there
he is
he’s faithful
he cares
and he wants what is best for us
i’m grateful
