Sometimes we cause our own pain. Sometimes our time in the desert is our own fault, but God showes us in His word that even when our exile is our own fault He will still come for us to save us. He will make is into a nation and will never leave us to die alone. Even the desert exile has a purpose.
I find great peace in knowing that even when I run full tilt into the muck, Jesus will come and reach down and pull us out and make us into something greater than we ever were before. His plan is not moved by our failure or falling.

I am a young woman who grew up in British Columbia. In BC was all I ever wanted; I had my poodle (Max) and all my friends, Saturdays at the Vancouver Aquarium and Sunday afternoons at one of my favorite beaches it was paradise. But God had a different plan for my life and my dad's job landed us in Alberta and now where I remain, in small town Souris Manitoba. The transitions from paradise to prairie were difficult and I will admit that now 10 years later I still refer to home as Abbotsford BC. Through this crazy pathway trek across Canada I have had one true constant, God; and though none of it was easy, everything that has happened in my life has formed in me a true lasting friendship with the one I call Immanuel. Because no matter how far from home we are God is with us, and thanks to God I have found an almost completely over looked beauty in Manitoba. If you open your eyes you will see that God has planted wondrous things everywhere you go.
