Crossing Cultures Making Disciples Memoir

Sovereign

Unknowns pile up, left and right. Closed doors and uncertainty overwhelm. At the ends of the earth. 

Amidst this confusion of crossroads. During a certain season in our lives. Fears creep in. Uninvited.

Then. In the weight of urgent prayer, a passage of Scripture whispers in my thoughts.

Rising gently. Firmly. Pressing through the questions and concerns.

A hymn of praise. Penned by Paul. 

About the Sovereign One.

Promises

Promises made and kept, anchor the heart. 

Steady our steps. 

Bring comfort in the dark. And courage for the day to day. 

Wholehearted commitment and follow-through reflects and reveals the faithfulness of our God. 

As we celebrate Christmas each year, my husband and I also rejoice in another anniversary. Remembering promises we made to one another. 

Promises. December 1987.

Seasons change

Trees. Luminous in the forest. As the dying begins. 

Letting go. Piece by piece. Leaf by leaf. 

Orange. Yellow. Red. 

Beautiful. And certain. 

Seasons change.
