Reunited!!!


      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.
