Goodbyes and Patience
I am in Portland saying goodbye to my kids. It is so good to see them, however, I find myself feeling sad that I don't know when I will see them again. Thanks to to blogs, emails, texting, and phone calls I will be able stay close to them, even if the physical distance will be far. I found out a few days ago that my printed books will not arrive around the 20th. They won't be delivered until the week after. Another delay in the departure date. My patience is taxed less when I simply give it over to God and remain flexible and go with His flow and not mine. Hope to take my first big step around the 27th or 28th. Thanks for reading this.

I'm so happy you enjoyed your time with your kids, but can certainly relate to your "not knowing when you will see them again" feelings. :( It's tough! Thank God for all the technology available today, huh? LOL
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to read that your trip is again delayed, but blessed with your attitude about it all! God's in control and just know that there may be reasons that you don't even see. Remember my first trip to Germany? It's cool to just be able to have that peace down deep inside and trust the He knows best.
Be Blessed!!
