It is not by happen chance, accident or coincidence that myself and the other two girls are here. Each day I am more convinced as to why "we" out of all the others that were interviewed were selected. It is not because we are more intelligent, skillful, smooth in interviews or more "spiritual" than others. No, we were called to this island because we are the exact combination of people and personality for this internship at this exact place and time.
Jokingly, I would say that this experience has had some manic tendencies. The great experiences or highs have been out of this world. The same dynamic is true for the lows. In both instances and everything in between, I am thankful for the two phenomenal women that I am having the honor of experiencing life with. We may get on each others nerves at times (WE do eat, sleep, play and work together on an 18X13 island!), but I couldn't imagine a greater team. Together we have had some wonderful experiences exploring the island, hiking, playing with the kids, etc... Together we have also experienced some fairly difficult times, during which my love and appreciation has grown for them. This past week has had its share of opposition, but we are still standing STRONG together. There is a natural balance that occurs between the three of us that couldn't have been better planned. God is good!
Ecclesiastes 4:12 NLT
A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
