breath of fresh air

My dad has a way of bringing fresh air to our lives over here. I think it was really timely. There are some things that we're trying to work through both personally and in looking towards the future.

We're now in the stage of wondering what's next? Continue in Scotland? Go somewhere else. We have some ideas, but nothing is grabbing us quite yet. Our commitment is until this coming August but we want to continue to be sensitive towards God's direction for our lives. We love it here, we just want to feel a peace of continuing or pursuing what isn ext.

Lots to ponder, lots going on right now, lots lots lots. It was good to just slow down and spend some time with family. My dad has such wisdom, such a calmness and confidence in his strength in God.

As I usually do when I depart from my parents, I shed a few tears as I walked away from my dad this morning as he took off for home.

Thanks dad for being so timely.
