Our tickets are purchased and we’re ready to go… well, not quite yet!

We leave from Philadelphia on Easter Sunday at 8:00am and arrive in Denver at 10:30am!! It seems unreal to think that it’s finally set. As we prepare to get ready to leave I have been challenged greatly on going with a servant’s heart. I question most of the time if I have one.

Eric had knee surgery last Friday and has been recuperating since then. The first few days he was on crutches and simply couldn’t walk around much. At this time Malachi also decided (well, obviously he didn’t decide) that he was going to be extra fussy and not want to sleep much. There were many times I found myself getting so frustrated with my situation that I took it out on Eric. I was put in the position where I had to take care of both my boys, something I should have delighted in doing, and instead I was irritable and completely joyless. I felt challenged that if I can’t lovingly serve my family, then how on earth can I be willing to serve people I don’t even know yet. Great question!

Jesus, help me lovingly serve my husband and my son. I need nothing back. Help me to love boldly with your love.
