As this chapter of our life comes to a close I have to step back and say “God is Good!” There are so many lessons I have learned since we have been in Little Rock. It has definately been a learning experience. For sake of trying not to shed tears, I am choosing to look at it kind of like college. We have been here for almost two years and, we have graduated and are moving on. Isn’t each phase of life like that? God wants to teach us something and He won’t let us move on until we have learned it. 

I have wrestled back and forth with, ”we are not missionaries, anymore, so what greater purpose is there?” That is the enemy trying to get me down. If you read scripture closely you will see it. We are to go and make disciples of all nations. (that includes the nation we live in!) My mission field abounds. My primary outreach right now is to my children and their friends.

During a class while still working for FamilyLife, I had to write a life purpose statement. I can’t remember the exact wording but it was the jist to minister to whoever I am with wherever I am……Isn’t that what God is all about….Isn’t that the purpose of a missionary? God is good, all the time, through our trials, through our joys.
