Re-cap

Filed Under Amy, Home Again

I spent some time this morning looking over past blogs, from the different places God has taken us and was reminded so clearly of his faithfulness. At a time when I feel physically and emotionally spent, this was refreshing. The week so far has been a mix of emotions: great joy in seeing family that I haven’t seen in so long to great sorrow in the closure that came at Papa’s funeral. I feel like we ran from one thing to another and now as the dust settles all I can see is clothes, bags and everything else we traveled with for four days thrown all over (and we’re leaving again for the weekend Friday night!). I want so badly to be in cleaning mode, but even more so wish I had little chipmunks and birds who could help me, just like in the Disney movies. Maybe if I go take a nap when I wake up it will all be taken care of? Probably not.

I realized as I’ve been rambling that my point from the beginning was looking over the past to give encouragement for the future. I highly recommend this. God doesn’t just do amazing things overseas, but right here, right now. In reading about my time in India I remembered just how much God wants to be involved in the “mundane” aspects of life. So, that being said, I think I’ll go clean up and instead of chipmunks or birds, I’ll be cleaning with God.
