I got home from Spain yesterday evening. The last few days were wonderful. God did a lot for me, and for my sister as well. We even got to talk about Jesus, and a little about her feelings. It is difficult to talk to her sometimes, but God gave us some situations that really made her smile. We went to the beach one day and there was a storm. It was beautiful, and we both love looking at waves. And God made me see how big my mouth is and how small my faith is.
I went out on a "bridge" to look at the waves, and I was alone, so I stood singing to God, praising Him. And I prayed to let me walk on water one day, that my faith could take it, I trust in Him. And the waves came crashing from every angle at the same time, and I fled back in fear. I felt God smiling at me. Nope, I've got long ways to go. But I hope one day that I will get to experience that, just between Him and me. But I do love storms. The Lord reminded me that I had prayed for them, so maybe I shouldn't complain when they come.
Then we went to Gibraltar and to the Rock to see the apes. It was so wonderful! I have never seen wild monkeys or apes before. I was filled with love just walking there. And I got to see how loving they act toward each other, with the mothers watching over and protecting the children as they play and learn, and make their mistakes, then cleaning their fur and picking off all the fleas. And they attack anyone who comes to close. God used all of it to make me feel so loved, and it filled my heart with a deep love that I don't know if I have ever felt before. It was exactly what I needed, and my sister was so happy.

I'm so happy. I was so locked up in my depressions last year, I forgot to enjoy life. I lost my way in the wilderness, but our Father is putting joy and so much love in my heart and I'm feeling held in His arms. Praise Him forever and ever! Nothing compares to His overwhelming Greatness and Glory, or His Love!
