We made it!!! I think I actually hugged. our house! Noah hugged our car. So sad-I KNOW!
It feels so good to be out of the car...so good not to have to hear Maggie scream for 8 hours straight because she hates the car...so good to know that I can sleep in my own bed tonight. I could go on and on, but I will stop there.
I must say that I am starting to sense the reality that we will face the next time we travel over a long period of time. Next time we do a trip like this, we probably will have packed up our things...or sold them...and we will simply not have a physical "home" to come back to. Wow...that is really starting to sink in for me over the past few days...probably more in respect to the kids than to myself personally. Having kids this time around sure does make a difference...I simply cannot explain it.
I simply do not know the timeline for our future departure to Asia. I know what we are "planning" with God's leading...and the time is drawing near when we will leave our things behind...leave our security behind...and be on the road a lot longer than 3 weeks.
Pray for me as a mum-that the Lord would be my strength. Pray that I will sense His presence with us wherever we go. Pray that we would show our kids that "stuff" is temporary and really and truly-it does not matter what we have...but what matters is who we are in Christ. Change is coming...Dear Lord...please prepare me and guide me to be all that you have made me to be!!!!
