Out of the desert

Wow...it's hard to believe that it has been 29days since this journey started. It seems like a lifetime ago that I was planning Mothers Day dinner and stressing about a dirty house.

God's presence has been so real, His grace so powerful in our lives, His love so evident in all the phone calls, cards, gifts, meals and e-mails from all of you! As we prepare to go home shortly(we still don't know when) I think of all the lessons we learned and all the Scripture that encouraged us...I feel like God took Dave and I out into the desert for some 'quality' time with Him and now it's time to go back to our ministry: raising three beautiful children. I realize that it was easier to focus on God when I had time to pray and meditate 24/7 without distractions of life and housework. Now the challenge begins--remembering His goodness and grace even when life goes smoothly and relying on Him for guidance even in the small steps of life.

Not sure I'll have as much time to continue the blog once we hit the ground running :-) and my thoughts might not be quite so deep amidst diaper changes and dirty dishes....but I hope I never forget the lessons we learned in a hospital room.

Love you all! Thanks for walking with us through our journey!
