I lost track of how many times I had said that over the past 2 weeks here in Kona. I think I thought once we got here, we would be okay. Because even the getting here was a battle\u2014changed flights due to Hurricane Irma; fears and doubts creeping in, anxious thoughts frequenting my mind.<\/p>\n
But oh my goodness I feel like we have been in a small battle since arriving. From car troubles, to heat rash, sickness, and Ivory falling out of a baby swing\u2014we have been hit. Coming to Kona was never in our plan. It was a shock when we felt the Lord drawing us back here.<\/p>\n
We have transitioned more times than I can count over the last 10 years but this one has by far been the hardest\u2026emotionally, physically, spiritually.<\/p>\n
I like that Kris Vallotton says if it\u2019s not good then it must not be the end. Because God works out all things for the good of those that love Him. (Rom 8:28) I love how the message says it, \u201cThat\u2019s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.” So we are definitely not at the end. We\u2019re in the middle. Or maybe even the beginning. And that\u2019s a hard place to be.<\/p>\n
So many unanswered questions, unexpected things happening, rhythms trying to be worked out. How does one get through this kind of time? How do I not only survive but even thrive?<\/p>\n
One day at a time. Really. That\u2019s what I have found. And a whole lot of trust.<\/strong><\/p>\n
