[...] So today as I ponder where I was on this day in my history, I also wonder where I’ll be on birthdays of the future. It’s crazy to think that in five years I might have two kids in high school (one almost in college!). Will we still be living in the same house? Have the same cars? Hang out with the same friends? Will we finally be able to speak Spanish? [...]

Pat – I am so grateful for the God-incident that led me to your daughter almost 6 years ago! She’s been an inspiration and a blessing to me and my family…

Wendy your words are so well spoken and your insight is proof that God’s word and will is done through us. You are a strong woman both mentally and spiritually, what a gift to be blessed with. Good luck with wherever God’s plan takes your family, wherever it is I know it will be a better place for having you there!

Wendy,
This is wonderfully written. I am rather emotional at this moment because of the experiences you are all going through together. These are God moments, even when we don’t know the outcome, as you have so beautifully expressed. We are praying along with you for His will. A wise friend once told us that it doesn’t matter so much where you live as it does HOW you live. You are all examples to your children, each other and those on this journey with you.
Love and prayers to you all,
Pat

Comment on He’s so bossy by Linda Borneman

I think you’re absolutely right…it was ultimately about Beth’s obedience and yours. Both accounts were very motivating to me. I know that it is only when I am still and “know that I (God) am God” is when I can hear the quiet whisper, the gentle nudging and the loving hands behind it all. It’s always funny when we think we are “doing something” for someone else, when all along, God intends for us to be the student, lol. Happens to me all the time.

Linda – and to take it a step further, Beth’s story was more about her own act of obedience than the man’s need for Christ (contrary to Beth’s initial thoughts). I think my story is the same. While I served a practical need for the young couple (as Beth did for the older man), I think *I* learned more than the others in my story
