...Pause

You may have noticed that I promised Bosnian journal entries... and then only wrote the first day. Well, low and behold, I didn't forget, in fact it's practically been taunting me in the back of my mind that I haven't yet blogged my entire missions experience. However, as I sort out my thoughts and feelings about what happened over there, I recalled that I live in America and I have freedom of speech, therefore my blog is not required to be maintained chronologically and that the blog police won't shut me down if I write something out of order.
And then I realized a truly beautiful thing; that God is a God of order, and yet He has created absolutely breathtaking madness. Not that anything God has made or set in place is disorderly, but that rather, it seems like madness to us because we are totally incapable of even slightly understanding the complexity that surrounds us. I am currently taking my finals and it takes one of the craziest seasons in my life for me to realize that the God of the universe the Almighty, He who says to the ocean "Now you stay there", is intimately and intricately involved in my tiny speck of a life on this earth.
How is it that we can worry about exams, stress about tomorrow, or feel overwhelmed in any situation, when HE who knit us together perfectly, HE who breathed the stars into the sky, HE who carries us through every storm is our advocate?
"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31
I exhort you, listen for your Maker, He is waiting to whisper peace to your spirit.

That you would find peace that surpasses understanding,
Amber
