warum haben wir vergessen?

it's funny how last week we were teaching kids about some characteristics of God... including being stronger than lions... faithful to save... and loving enough to give it all.
well it should be of no suprise that over the last days i have been questioning His faithfulness and love.... WARUM? WHY?

is it so easy to forget what He has done for me... for my family... for all those around me???
i have been reading about moses leading out the israelites from slavery and everytime they start complaining i think to myself... what are you forgetting what God has done.. or who He is? just the chapter before He saves your butts from the egyptians and now your are wishing you could be back under their cruel power...

but look at me... look at me.
i am finishing up the end of outreach.. that i had no money for, from a city i technically never would have been able to go to... speaking a language that i thought i could never learn... i can talk to a mom that i never expected i could ever have a relationship with again.. wake up everyday with breath in my lungs and grace in my soul.... and none of it is from me. none of it is because of me.

i can and will proclaim.. WE SERVE A GOOD GOD! und wir haben ein super toll Gott!
es ist Wahr. Doch! ich hatte schwierig zeiten... und werde nochmal. und ihr wirt auch... aber Gott ist immer gut! immer.

Father.. all the places that i have been questioning.. the times when i don't understand and complain or fight Your will... i am sorry! help us to see Your everyday goodness. the small things. may everywhere we look, we see Your Face! Oh You are soooooooo good! Danke Herr!
help us understand the Love You have given us!
in His name, Amen!

Er ist super!

i smile because i know He is good... and laugh because His goodness is in me!

blessings.. and thank you all for the prayers.

much love and covered with grace, israel
