Laszlo's most requested bed time song right now is 'Our God is an Awesome God'. We've sang it almost every night for the past week or so. I can't remember when he first requested it, but I do remember it was an evening when it was a crazy day or last week when I found out that I have one more year till I can apply for residency (meaning my stay in Romania will be another year longer then originally thought). When he asked for it I remember a bit of a smile and a knowing in my spirit that those words are so true and how good God is to remind us of His truth through his children - even at 7!
Though some days are hard, sad and frustrating, I really do love that God's plans are not ours and that he works in ways we do not exactly think He will... that makes for a life full of amazement, adventure and trust. Maybe a bit scary at times and unsure (or maybe just a feeling of being out of control considering He is in control at all times) but much smoother or maybe just a well marked path as we walk. Sometimes I do stop and ask 'why'? But maybe to know the answer or the time-line or the out come would be too much for my heart to take... so God IS good and I know this to be true! I want to love like him and know I'm loved by him; to have patience like him as we learn and grow; to serve others with grace and tenderness.
