missionary renewed

I am very thankful that I got to go through this study. I’ve been walking with the Lord for a long time and am a missionary on the field. This study was like a renewal and recommitment, similar to people who have been married a long time.

Having gone through so many trials, years on the field, so much loss, heartache, rejection, my heart for God hadn't waned, but my heart to keep going had. I was bitter and critical hearted. I was truly able to lay down the burdens of carrying so much hurt and unforgiveness.

I took this time to remember again my first love, what He went through for me and for all of us. It was so clarifying to my heart and mind. I’m so thankful for my kind and gracious counselor, Carol, who walked this journey with me. Thank you.
