Always faithful

A new year is quickly speeding by. I am so thankful that I am still in Nantes, I have so much to be thankful for. This week has been tough because I am sick but I still try to count my blessings. I have a place to live, food to eat, great friends and more importantly I have a faith that doesn't disappoint. I know that it's sounds crazy but everyday I face difficult challenges. It's only by the grace of God that I can wake up each day and fight against hopelessness and discouragement. There is a force inside me that is so much stronger than anything I could imagine.

So what do I do with this gift? Well, I thank God daily. All my struggles are for a reason and I know that they push me towards the greater things yet to come. Whether you are a believer or not, this verse still remains true: the best is yet to come.

"Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead" Philippians 3:13

Another quote I would love to share is one from a friend. I believe he has the same vision for his life. It just keeps getting better and better...

"There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind." C.S. Lewis
Don't look back, keep going...
