Well, it’s been a little while since I’ve written a blog…it’s not that the internet hasn’t been available, I just haven’t been sure what to say.

I’m writing this on the eve of our last full day in Europe, just two days before we fly back to the US of A.  Most likely this will be my last blog entry of the World Race.

I’m not even sure what to write.  I have all kinds of mixed emotions about the end of this chapter of my life.  I’m still not too sure what God will lead Cathy and I into next, so I have mixed emotions about starting the next chapter as well.  I can already tell that this year is an introduction to something much greater that God has planned.  Let’s face it – this year has been largely about God breaking me, about tearing down my walls and laying the groundwork for the person He wants me to be.  It’s been one insanely difficult, grueling, frustrating, annoying, wonderful year.

Adjusting to life in the States again is going to be a challenge in itself, as I am used to living in community and without a lot of my freedoms.  It’s going to be a struggle at times to continue being who I have become, especially since I am not completely sure who that is!

The good news is that God has it all figured out, so I have excitement and joy in knowing that simple truth.  Throughout the year God has provided for me non-stop, and I know that won’t change as I return home.

I look forward to seeing all of you and hearing how your year has been.  You’ll understand when I ask you this question that it’s not an easy thing to answer, but I hope God will give us the words to share when that time comes.  God bless.  🙂
