It's amazing how the Lord reveals his love and grace through others around us. It's amazing how God loves us so much that he died for us. It's amazing how everything is done in His will and purpose. It's amazing how the Lord gives us free will. It's amazing how beautiful God made the world and all that is in it. I am a daughter of God. I am loved by Him unconditionally. He will always be on my side. The Lord is so good to me. "What else can I do but worship? What else can I do but bow? Cause all I really long for is You. And all I really yearn for is You."Looking back at the events that have occurred just in these past two weeks, I begin to understand what people mean when they say that a revival is coming soon.
First, on the way to ISA retreat, Monica and Alex got into an accident. The Lord was so faithful and protected us all the time. Being a part of the accident didn't impact me as much as I thought it would. However, seeing how quickly communities gathered to pray was amazing.
Just a couple of days later I woke up to Monica telling me that her friend had just passed away from a car accident. Crazy much? It was 6:30am and I got up immediately. Got in the shower and thought to myself, "The revival is near." I was speechless.
Another couple of days later I was speaking with Sao. He told me about Tria and Moua. They were in a motorcycle accident and are in critical condition. I was shocked. Another accident? More prayer. God really wants us to reach out to Him even more than we already have been.
Soon, news of Bob's mom came to us. Her mother was in critical condition in the hospital. That was all we knew for a while. We soon learned that she was in a coma and on life support. My first instinct was to go to the hospital and pray for her mother. Monday, I skipped Physics Lab to go with Alex to see Bob's mom. Seeing her lie in the bed peacefully, yet with little life in her was a weird feeling. Looking at her all I could do was smile. I went back to the waiting room with a huge smile and happiness in my heart. Maybe it was because I could see God's peace in Bob and her family. They were so calm. Their trust in God was visible to me, and that made me smile.
We walked over to the chapel to pray. Bob's prayer was so amazing. She prayed for an unselfish heart. She told God that if it was in His will, He could take her mom. I have no idea what she's going through. I don't even know if I'd been able to pray that prayer. She truly is an amazing person.
Later that night, we got another call from Bob letting us know that her mother had passed away. I was shocked mostly because I had just seen her earlier. Pondering through the shock, I walked around McNally field. I then realized that we don't take the time to realize just how much God loves us. My heart definitely broke for Bob. She went through so much and yet there was still more to get through. Even so, God is still amazing.
His love has no bounds.
