Peace

God makes himself known to me all the time. I feel his presence and trust His leading. It breaks my heart when others don't see and know the promise of Heaven and the promise of Jesus. After working a huge fraud case for several months the person I had been trying to help committed  suicide.  It’s heartbreaking to me how people will choose to live life frauding others, it’s a way a life for a coward. In some countries it's just a normal way of life in general to provide for family, they truly don’t know any better. I believe this case was just that, a person in another country scamming an innocent victim here. Victims can become so broken and lost that they can’t see past the money they have lost and choose to end their lives. I’m so heartbroken for these people it makes me physically ill. I should have listened to my mom when she told me I would have been a great teacher, I’m not made for the heartache of financial crime. I want to give grace and help people, this job can be heart wrenching. However I was given a beautiful word of wisdom. Isaiah 6:8. God has me here for a reason. I have asked God to use me, He surly has sent me into battle. Maybe I just need to be still, wait and see His plans. I really wish this situation had not ended tragically, this is the second time this has happened in the last two years. God is always the option, nothing is ever so bad that a person should take their own life. Praying for this mans family. 

God is a God of peace, I took this picture on my lunchtime walk. He truly shows Himself to me, and I'm thankful.
