Those may be innocuous numbers to all of you but they represent most of the timeline of my life right now.
Sorry I have not been blogging for a while. It has been a roller coaster, more below on that.
Back to the numbers. It is 120 days from today when I will work my last day at DOCJT. It will have been a little over 6 years. Wow. Six years. That is the longest stint at a single job for me, prior to 6 it was 4. Well, I will be moving on to my next job which will encompass missionary/pastor’s wife/vocational school director. Please pray for me. It is 135 from today when I will step onto a plane and depart the US only to return as a visitor. I will be moving my life out of this country. Several parts of my heart will always remain here with y’all, my friends and surrogate family. This is the hardest part of the moving process, leaving my people. I try to not dwell on it too long or I have an episode. (Episodes are not pretty.)Please pray for me. It is 198 days from today when I will walk down an aisle and embark on an exciting and scary journey with the man God gave me for my life. Wow, under 200 days. That is crazy!!! I am working hard here to do what I need to do for the wedding/life there and I feel behind. Please pray for me.
My lack of blogging is tied to the many things I need to do to move my life, etc. More than that, I have felt very mundane and overly ordinary - monotonous, and who wants to read about the mundane and ordinary? I have been greatly underinspired. That is, until the other day when reading my fave blogs I was reminded that God is just as much in the monotony as He is in the fabulous and extraordinary. I know this and have reminded many a friend of the same thing, though somehow, I had forgotten it myself. The monotony is not uninspiring, it is awe inspiring.
The parents arrive back in the country today. They will be taking their first REAL vacation in a decade. They are traveling with some friends to Europe. Thank you ASBC, Virginia for making my parents go on vaca. They need it. The parents also padded in some time for the fam and for church visits so they will be helping me continue to pack up my life. I am looking forward to seeing them because I miss them.
Well, that is me right now. I am stamping invitations, working on invitation lists, packing, purging, selling, buying, going to church, trying to have a little bit of a social life, working my 9 to 5.
I love you all. Take care and God bless
