The Fall

“Our fall was, has always been, and always will be, that we aren’t satisfied in God and what He gives. We hunger for something more, something other.”-Ann Voskamp

{3,906-3,921}

-Early morning places to be...getting to see the sun rise

-Warm temperatures

-Fun activities to do with my Spanish students

-Books arriving in the mail

-The opportunity to give a gift to someone I miss

-Our extended autumn

-Hearing from others the journey they have taken

-Knowing that I am not alone

-A sense of freedom

-The deep grief I am going through
-Compassion that God is building in me for others that hurt
-Understanding that He is El Roi, the God that sees me
-Pain (praying that it makes me more like Christ)
-Dinner provided by a friend out of the blue
-That God is always good and I am always loved regardless of how others respond to me
-Gratitude because without it I would not have survived this year.  It has kept my head above water.
