Yesterday was one of the hardest days I have experienced yet, thought I knew it was coming…
My sister Anne had her second baby, a boy at 3:07am, May 2nd. I wasn’t there, and I have never missed home as much as I did yesterday. Realizing that I won’t hold my nephew until he is nearly 8 months old is a hard thing to swallow. But…I am resting in the truth that God called me to where I am now, and his purposes are greater than I can fathom, and he will restore lost time with my family somewhere down the road. I still would rather be here where God called me than home where he has not.
To my family – I miss and love you all so much right now. Anne, I would have loved to have been there, like last time, and to be holding your precious boy, and helping you out at home, but I suppose you have plenty of help as it is. 🙂 I love you!
