God protected my grandmother from death for years and only allowed this to happen at the right time. God allowed my grandmother's cancer to advance, giving her weeks to live.Ĭorrection: God gave me years and years and years of close relationship with my grandmother despite having multiple forms of cancer that even reached stage 4. Why? Because He loves me so much and wants me to be rested in the midst of grief. He had specific plans for me to deepen specific friendships and to focus on taking care of myself and my relationship with HIm. My dreams plans aren't always HIs dreams for me, and I trust His are better. "God urged me to cancel my dream job and my plans to work at a summer camp as a photographer."Ĭorrection: God guided me to Athens instead of camp, because He wanted me to be here, rest, and grieve with Him in a quiet environment. It's only been about 2 weeks, but I have some new truth. If you've made it this far, thank you! I hope my initial attitude and negativity didn't get you down. One day, I will see the purposes and reasons behind my pain. Do not put your hope in your circumstances or the people around you. Put your hope in the promises God has made to you. He is stirring up emotions and feelings in you that will make you stronger and give your soul more depth and understanding. He is working in the darkness, He is molding and shaping and preparing you for greater things to come. I want anyone going through something similar to truly trust in the plans God has for you. I believe there will be an amazing testimony concerning the purpose of this season. I am well aware that this "season" of hardships may last longer than the summer. Just because I began trusting Jesus fully didn't mean that the hardships and disappointments ceased. I had to face them head-on, but I didn't have to face them alone.

I couldn't have a full relationship with Jesus without bringing all of my pain, hurt, and broken expectations. Whether you want to play the good guy role or the normalized cruel D-bag, you're gonna wanna plan how you wanna proceed with each of the actions you take. There's a lot of planning and decision making. I think of it less of an adventure game and more of a strategy game, if anything. That can actually be said for the entire game itself. You can't just constantly press A and expect everything to fall into place. To earn money and prestige, you need to complete certain mini games that actually require you to read and think. Use it wisely and decide what task you want to start and/or finish. Each day of work has a set amount of time. The game revolves around three main components: money, time and prestige.


The whole thing operates in a Papers Please type mechanic.

The game loves to remind you you're in a totalitarian society. You listen to the citizen's conversations, refer them to the officials, and then lather, rinse, and repeat. It just gets so stale so fast, the same with your starter job. The dark humor is a riot in this game, don't get me wrong, but there's no moderation with it.
