My sister and brother in law DV
will be home from Romania
and so I am going
home as well!
I will be able to visit with family,
and I hope to be there on their feast day.
I also hope to hear my sister and brother-in-law speak
at the church my sister and I grew up in
about her work with the orphans in Romania.
I have heard
recently of so many sudden tragic accidents
of people suddenly being taken from this life.
*
I pray that all will be well for me
and that I will be able to visit my family
and that they will know how much I love them.
How much I see them,
their faith and trust in God;
I used to tell people that if there is anything good in me
it is first because of God
and then because of my Godly Mother, Father,
Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles.
I know I am blessed
and pray that in this I can bless others
and learn to love as I have received love.
*
Meanwhile I will be job searching here,
and will also be online while away to continue job searching
and French learning.
*
I am seeking to trust in God's mercy for provision.
How wonderful! I am sure you will enjoy the time with your family. How long has it been since you last saw them?
