An Insurmountable Peak


"It seemed like we were climbing this insurmountable peak...and the truth is that we are. If we are trying to do it ourselves, trying to figure it out so that it makes complete sense it will be impossible, because His ways are not our ways and His thoughts not our thoughts. But if we surrender (again) the how and when and where we are going to live to God and simply follow the steps that He's given us...then there is nothing insurmountable, nothing to difficult or impossible. Because God is God, and in Him all things are possible."

This relates so much to me now, where I am in life. To read of all of the needs they had back, over two years ago, and know that the Lord provided for them - is amazing. I am reminded that he is the Provider... and that we just need to fall back into his arms, and trust that He is there to catch us.

I wish I could sit down with my husband, and talk with this couple over a cup of tea.... i sense that I would be deeply encouraged and moved.

I'd love to introduce you to them some day and I know you'd get along great with Simone, she's so real! Maybe in the spring sometime once they're settled back in Cambridge.
