Hi rest intensive group it's me Renate from Norway I'm actually in the
airport in Bergen going to Oslo sipping coffee and having some orange juice here
waiting for my plane to arrive and I just wanted to say that it was really
nice to meet you guys last weekend and I'm looking forward to catch up on your
rest group and your fireside chat and this is my first journey share and I
wanted to do like something just in the moment something that just happened and
I have two very important health appointments in Oslo at a clinic that's
why I'm flying there today and what happened when I came to the airport
right now I realized that the airport that my plane is delayed so far I will
might be able to reach my appointments but maybe not and it's still in the
wait and I immediately felt like the stress and oh my gosh what am I gonna do
and I soon the first thought was like how can I fix this how can I get I have
to call the clinic I have to talk to them I have to fix another appointment I
have to figure this out and then after I thought about oh my gosh all these
things that I have to do then I thought no I can do differently this time I can
be in rest I am entitled to live and rest through this and I felt my body and
my soul just go quiet and I was like I'm gonna trust God in this and I'm gonna
wait and if it's delayed then he has another plan when it's delayed and if
I'm not gonna reach it then he will work out something else and it was just like
kind of like just this piece this blanket of peace just like came upon me
and I decided I'm not gonna call the clinic I'm just gonna wait and see and
be at peace and sit here and drink coffee and send this chat with you guys
and it was just like it's such a good experience that I'm having right now
that in when something in life happens like this when you usually your old
mode isn't going to stress and unrest you are entitled to have peace I am
entitled to have rest right now I can move through this in rest even though it
gets postponed again and delayed and I actually will go to Oslo and paid lots
of money and I won't be able to go through with this I can still be in rest
so I just want to share that
that and I feel have this like good feeling inside me and trusting in God
that he is who he says he is that he is good in this situation and that he loves
me and that I can trust him yes so I just wanted to give that little quick
journey share I bet I'll get a chance to share more about my life and challenges
in moving into rest later on in a later journey share or some down along the
road all right have a good day everyone
