devotions and reflections

Looking back in the last couple of years I couldn’t help but marvel at how God led me through.

Last year I was hospitalized and was almost at the brink of death but God helped me make it through. A couple of years ago I lost my job but God provided friends who gave me financial support. In this time of crisis, I came to know who my real friends are and how far they are willing to support me. I can’t thank God enough for that.

I wanted to go to the US to train for a medical missionary but it seems it wasn’t God’s plan for me. Two years later I met the man of my dreams. I have never before felt at home in my whole life.

The church where I belong now seems to me closer than the one I grew up attending to. Had I gone to the US, I wouldn’t have felt this belongingness I found with my husband and in the church.

God is good all the time. I say this not only when the boat I’m on is sailing smoothly but especially when storms tossed it to and fro, God is there holding the boat in His hand and carrying it safely through my destination.

Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
