Having our daughter Sara home has reminded me of how hard parting has been over the years. We left my mom and dad in 1979. They accepted that graciously. God later blessed them with years with their grandchildren that they never expected.
It was hard for us to see Sara go to Kazhakstan. The separation has made the reunion sweet. We are with a young lady who is united with us in purpose and we are having a great time together. We are able to share at such a deep and real level.
It was hard for us to leave DC. But another way I have felt blessed this week is to get started on facebook. I have loved being on contact with so many old friends that have resulted from years of life and ministry.
Matt 19:29 "And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms for My name's sake, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life.NASU
When we choose to run after God with abandon, He has ways of surprising us and blessing our lives so deeply.
Never fear obeying him and loving him. It is worth the journey now, and is really worth it in eternity!
