A Tough Transition

My time in Swaziland was so great! It feels good to know how each one of my precious Swazi children are doing. God answers prayer. They're all growing and learning and I feel blessed to be able to see that. Little Lindo is strong, healthy and happy! I feel like the Lord placed her heavy on my heart last trip, so she would be covered in prayer. Her testimony is one of hope and perseverance.

Coming home has been hard. I've gone through a ton emotions. I've felt exhausted, defeated, lost and angry. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful for my trip and as hard as it was, I loved every moment. But the problem in Swaziland is so big it's hard not to feel overwhelmed. I think sometimes I get caught up in trying to save all of Swaziland. When really, if I can just love a few, then hopefully they'll go on to love others. That's how an impact is made. I won't always see what I reap, but I've got to have faith that the seeds I plant will grow.

Now, I've entered a time of waiting and prayer. I'm not sure where I'm headed anymore or where Roots of Hope is headed. I'll be the first to admit, I change my mind constantly. I have no idea what a year from now looks like, I have no idea what tomorrow looks like. I'll also be the first to admit, sometimes I don't always hear God correctly. I want to thank you in advance for being patient with me as I continue to seek God during this time.

There is one thing that continues to not waver - I know God has called me to help Swaziland. I don't know what that looks like anymore, but that much hasn't changed.

You're prayers are loved and appreciated. Thank you for your support!
