I know its been a while since I have blogged. My month has been full of packing, saying goodbye to dear friends, and sleep. Plenty of sleep. I have been working on a few projects and trying to adjust to the newness of my soon coming departure.
It is so good to know that God's timing is perfect and that He is watching over me to deliver me out of all my troubles. He is a loving and good God. I am so grateful for His kindness.
As I am getting all things ready to leave, I have been enjoying reading a children's story in Spanish. The story gives a new perspective on Mefiboseth, the grandson of King Saul. It reminds me of how God longs to have us come and share in his kingdom, not because of our inadequacies, but because of His great love. He offers us a place at His table...the same was done for Mefiboseth! He was given a place at King David's table, even though he was a cripple, and had been exiled from the kingdom. He had run for his life, but now He was being summoned by King David. Even though Mefiboseth could not serve in the army because he was crippled, David loved Mefiboseth and gave him freely from his heart. God also loves you and me. I'm so glad that I can be a part of His kingdom.
I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and as we look forward to the New Year, mine is full of adventure. I will be starting school in Spanish, starting with a clean slate, and meeting tons of new people. I will be saying goodbye and farewell to the old, and welcoming in the new.
I love you all. I'll write again soon.
