There's No Place Like Home

"There's no place like home." Those are sweet sweet words to my ears.
Home, it is where the heart is. It is not so much a place as it is an attitude. For the last 20 days Val and I have been to Rockwall Texas to a staff meeting. To Tomball Texas to stay with some dear dear friends, John and Janie, and to speak to their Mission Committee. Then it was off to my parents for a few days to share some time with them. Then off to visit an Aunt and Uncle to speak to them about speaking at their church, back to Tomball for a Moz. short term team meeting, and then at last, for a two day drive home. We even tried to see John and Cindy Pieper's daughter Mary and Harry but missed them in Flower Mound.

I did most of the driving and Val did all of the reading. She read out loud an Andrew Murray book called, "The beauty of Holiness," Donald Miller's book called, "Jazz Notes" and she read the Psalms, Proverbs daily reading and we started Romans after finishing the book of Acts and parts of a book we are studying for cultural learning, "African Friends and Money Matters."

There were times when we listened to music, sang out really loud and then there were times when we just laughed a lot till we almost cried over silly things just because we were dead tired and trying to stay awake.

Traveling isn't all that it is cracked up to be but God has a plan and we are settled in trying to do what it is that He puts before us and to do it well. We pray daily for wisdom and revelation of the scriptures so we are acting in faith for this prayer to be answered.

Our time was fruitful with all those we encountered and our support was raised. We have been blessed abundantly above and beyond what we could have ever planned for or hoped for. And that is the way we like it, we like it that God is in control and most importantly that we believe it.

"The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord" Psalm 37:23
