What a beautiful morning on the Dniper River. It's so nice to sit here and actually be pretty cool in this 99 degree heat. The mornings and evenings are actually quite nice. Our apartment is actually hotter than it is outside, crazy!!!
I forgot how peaceful it is to sit out on our YWAM boat. With Ukraine, so much anxiety, hopelessness, and general problems come. The nation is in despair, people are angry, hurt, and feel like this season will never end. The new regime is increasing gas costs, and raising the pension age by five years.
Even in YWAM, there is a bit of depression. Some on our base seem so lost and just don't see anything good. I can relate with them. Everyone goes through seasons like this one that some of them are going through. The trick is to get through it with a good attitude. Our attitude defines us in the midst of the chaos. This transition time for our base will not be easy, but it will make us better. It will bring us closer to the Lord. It will bring us peace, like the river this morning.
