Once upon a time I heard a song that went like this...
Thank You L-rd for gettin' us here
Thank You L-rd for gettin' us here
Thank You L-rd for gettin' us here
Right where we are.
And I think that has been a song that has helped Marcus and I keep our hearts and minds in the right place as we made our trip back to Elizabethtown, PA. And it's deffinitly been a blessing.
As of right now Marcus and I made it back to Harrisburg, PA thursday morning around 2 am, having spent a few days in Pittsburg and then taking the Greyhound from there. We've been spending the last few days visiting some of the churches and ministries we had started relationships with a month or so ago, and resting. And the L-rd has provided for us in the fullest ways, and so we give him thanks for the beautiful people, the wonderful conversations, and the delicious and sometimes not-so-delicious meals along the way.
Speaking of prayer....
Right now we're in a place where G-d has given us the opportunity to do a lot of reflecting and processing to continue to form the community of people surrounding this bus. So all of the people surrounding this so called ministry, I'm sure, are thankful for your prayers and your support as our friends and family.
And so we still need lots of prayer for G-d's hands of grace and mercy that we need so badly to understand in order to understand what it means to forgive one another and really begin to form a community that accepts both the weaknesses as well as strengths of all those included. And lots of times that means ourselves as well. For I think we are all beginning to understand that our forgiveness only is as true as the understanding we have of G-d's forgiveness for us.
May we continue to learn to trust in G-d's timing and G-d's provision.
And may we continue to thank G-d for putting us where he has.
Thanks for your prayers and encouragements that we receive all of the time.
