And knowing we are headed to our own beds and real porcelain toilets in a house where the sewer lines are clogged and our neighbors are petitioning to close down His ministry we still have peace.
It's the peace of God that surpasses understanding. And it truly does. We long to be back with our community of Christ. I feel pauls heart when he cried " oh, how I long to be with you!". And we yearn to return to His ministry field, to the people he has called us to because he loves them. And we love them too.
This whole trip has been amazing, we wish it could last forever. But there is a great tug on our hearts, one that keeps us up at nights, keeps us restless and agonizing in prayer. It's knowing that there is a lost people's who need to hear the Gospel, a broken city that he wants to restore and a people needing a shepherd.
Almost home.
