The Journey

Ah, yes!  The journey. When in college, I naively thought I had my journey figured out.  I would get married, together we'd form a team with other couples, and then we'd go to Africa and make a huge difference there. It brings tears to my eyes looking back at the ups and downs of the path that I thought would be so smooth.


Obviously, my journey starts as a little girl, learning and growing in the home where God placed me.  I have such fond memories of childhood and I also have difficult memories.  All of these intertwine to form part of who I am.


Who am I?  I am a weak woman trying her best to be strong, learning instead to lean on the Lord.  This journey from childhood to where I am now has thrown me some curve balls, deep times of hurt and struggle.  Looking back, this is when I really learn to rely and trust in God.  And He brings joy! 


I have also experienced so much joy in this journey!  How could I not with a wonderful husband and four precious boys?  I am surrounded on every side by people who I love and who love me in return. What deep joy this life journey has brought me.


So, I am starting this blog to share this journey with any who are interested. Walk with me!  I am growing... always growing...  through this journey on which God has led me.
