I am writing this post from Guatemala. It feels so good to be back, even the weather
has welcomed me with grace and mercy. To
say that seeing Daniel at the airport was surreal is not adequate enough to
describe the feeling I felt when he greeted me. It felt both good and weird at the same time
to finally see him face to face and not face to Skype. In many ways, it is as if we have not skipped
a beat.
I
am now on my 6th of 12 days here.
Once again last night, I found myself begging for God’s mercy to be upon
us. It feels so right and so good to be
together. I cannot help but to long for
the day that all of this distance stuff is once and for all behind us. It seems as if the visa situation has reached
stagnancy. I often find myself so desperately longing for
a more “normal” life…for Daniel and I to actually live together in the same
country, town, and house, to have all of our belongings in one location, for us
both to be employed, and for us to tackle my student loans dollar by dollar
until they no longer exist.
Life
seems so much up in the air. I am ready
for consistency in my life. I am ready
to have my family together once and for all.
May God’s grace and mercy be upon us and in our impatience may we be
forgiven when we fail to trust His plans for us.
