It Was Good

Wednesday I was able to attend Town Hall––the monthly graduation and celebration for the men at my internship site. Even though it had only been a couple of weeks since I saw them last, it felt like it had been months. It was good to see each man. It was good to see their smiles. It was good to be in their brotherly embrace. It was good to catch up with them and to hear the amazing things God is doing in their lives.

I had gone there to fulfill a promise. I had promised that I would see them at Town Hall. I had gone to encourage them to stay strong in their journey. But, in actuality, they encouraged me. Deep down I had entered with much personal discouragement. Seeing them and talking with them restored my hope that God is good, and He is faithful. It was them who encouraged me to stay strong in my journey.
