a note from Tori K.

As yesterday was a very trialing work day, I was expecting the same for today. When we arrived to our site we worked in a house that was pretty much done but just needed a few touch ups, which took a significant amount of waiting time. In these moments when we felt as though we were useless, I feel as though we learned just as valuable a lesson. Last nights devotion focused on God’s “little interruptions” that lead us to take action and feel the Holy Spirit. Although we had an annoyingly easy work day, God found his way into our hearts through the fellowship of one another. In strengthening the relationships we had with one another, our relationships with God were also strengthened. It’s hard to move on through difficult times without the strength of God. The time spent with my peers reflected that relationship we have with God. The extra time gave us a chance to reflect on why we’re here, and those positive workers around us reminded me of the great drive and motive we have to take time out of our busy lives to serve Jesus, and that is a truly amazing “interruption”.
