FORTY DAYS? Has it really been forty days? Feels like just yesterday I was in the airport with my mom, nervous and excited for my new Houston journey. As I sit here (relaxing during naptime!), I can't help but reflect on the past 40 days and acknowledge God's guidance and grace in my life. I know this is exactly where I'm supposed to be.
Before I had even heard about Casa, working my 9-to-5 back in Syracuse, I was praying for God to guide me toward my next step in life. I had no idea what that might entail or what He had in mind, but I knew I needed to trust and follow. So I did. I followed Him all the way to Houston and have never felt such peace about a decision.
Although I have only committed for one year here and I have no idea what my next chapter will be, I am certain of one thing: my future is in God's hands. God is already there. May He grant me the strength to follow wherever He leads.
On a different note, the kids are still doing great. Sometimes they'll get sad and ask about their mom or dad, which is always so hard to hear. I never know the right words to say. I just reassure them that we love them and are here for them. They are so strong! At such a young age, they have already experienced so much adversity. My only comfort is knowing that God is with them. I pray that He uses me to bring joy and peace to their lives.
"Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth; break forth,
O mountains, into singing! For the Lord has comforted his people, and
will have compassion on his suffering ones." - Isaiah 49:13
