Sometimes things just NOT go well... They get too much and it feels like if something more happens, you will explode. I felt this was happening with me this week. And it seems to be a normal thing to happen. Everyone goes through this... But, the problem is: how can you go throught this on a mission?!
This was an absolutely new level for me. And it needs to be explained a bit.
When you're doing something like this, people have sertain expectations from you. You NEED to be ALWAYS fine. No matter what. You NEED to be always open to people and be nice. So these are expectations. The reality is: 24/7 you're around same people, all are in one building where you actually can't find a place to stay alone. Ministries, homeworks, intensive studies, a lot of things God is changing in you personally, communication problems inside the team.. It is so easy to become overwelmed? How can you be nice to everyone when you're exhausted?! By the way, I'm not complaining right now :) haha sorry if you misunderstood me. Just trying to explain this kind of situation.
But even in through hardships God will show us His care. The only thing we need to do is to open our eyes and see it! And then - share....
1 John 4:7
Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
God has spoken to me recently that what I do lack is noticing all the good things around when I'm facing hard times. Because it easier for us to focus on the pain instead of seeing some small goood things that we usually take for granted. And we do take A LOT OF THINGS for granted.
God, give me your eyes so I can finally see
