Your light will shine when all else fails

Such mixed feelings as the day came to an end. Amazed at what a wonderful God I have and realized that through him indeed all blessings flow. Even with so much doubt he is still able to shine his light. I am more than blessed. Too grateful for words for a sustaining Abba, a faithful Father - the one who has never let go despite of my constant breakdowns and shaky faith. To have great parents who have been hugely supportive is an added gift. They never fail to remind me of that greater picture.

Lord, you are faithful.

At the same time, this feeling of leaving won't go away. Not much of sadness but perhaps a melancholic reaction with today being the 'official' last day of IMU. No more familiar faces around the university. Everyone headed to a different direction. Well, it's still the same journey they began with, only this time in a new path. This past two and a half years with our paths converging has been a great one, with ups and downs. Friendships gained and friendships lost. Hearts broken and hearts mended. Spirits weak and then strengthened. *sigh* Its been a great journey and it can only can better.

I am, thankful. and happy. He has a great plan for us. Why is it so easy to forget that at times? Reminds me of an old song they used to play in church..

It's good to remember the goodness of God..

Its back to Captivating (again) for now.

A quote from the previous book - "Though we may fear the test, at the same time we yearn to be tested, to discover that we have what it takes." - John Eldredge, Wild at Heart. It is worth the read for guys AND the girls :)
