Up until this point in my life obedience has never been painful. In fact, it has always been easier to obey than to disobey. I knew that the consequences would quickly find my, and quite frankly, that just wasn't worth it. But in this particular situation, I am finding that disobedience is the much easier option. It would be easy for me to stay here with my family. In the comfort of my native country. With my friends. Where I know the language and can easily communicate with people,...but we are not called to a life of comfort. We are called to a life of obedience. Whatever the cost.
In this season of my life I am clinging to the fact that those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Praise God for this truth because without it this little girl would be a complete mess. Letting go of the handrails of this world and reaching out for and trusting that God's invisible hand will be there to catch, guide and support me in this season of the unknown.
great! obey!
