Since arriving in Argentina, I have recited this verse over and over again. The last couple of weeks have been challenging. A good way to describe it would be an emotional roller-coaster. Some days are really great and then the next day you find yourself asking what you are doing here. I have been having a hard time trusting the Lord. There has been a lot of wrestling between us.
It isn't that I don't like it here or that I am having a bad time. Overall, I am loving it! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and I feel so blessed to be able to be here, living in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Lord knows me, better than I know myself, and he knew that this was something I always wanted to do.
The issue is that I am being stretched. Living abroad is a time of growth and let me tell you, the honeymoon is over and it is time for growing. I am being challenged but it is good. When I look at just these past two months, I have really had to rely on the Lord in a whole new way. That is really exciting! I seriously can't wait to see what he has in store, but it is a daily struggle. This past weekend was really refreshing. I spent a lot of time in the Word and was encouraged and reminded of God's faithfulness. I don't have it all figured out but God doesn't ask me to. It isn't always easy but praise the Lord, I don't have to live on my own strength.
