Surrounded by prayer of precious friends we are ready. Ready to release our children to these children. There is no sadness in the leaving because of why they stay. Yet still it is a huge release the likes of which I've never known.
My own children being used by ,God to raise up the next generation - Jocelyn and Aaron in Cambodia, and Eric and Alyssa with the youth of Crossroads back home. This makes me eternally grateful! The tears that fill my eyes are tears of thankfulness and worship, not sadness!
As I look around the campus I remember one of the things I see here that I love is the willingness that the kids have to help in any way they can. And now our kids get to help them. They pick up trash when they see it, help cook, do laundry and hang it and help those younger without being asked. Things that make me thankful to the house parents raising and training them.
And so we say good-bye for now, with wonderful memories, experiences, and praises to our God! Here are today's sites.
Finally - I took a walk all alone (which is hard to do) back to see the future BB10 now under construction and prayed for the precious souls The Lord will rescue and fill the house with. Takes my breath away to understand there are tiny ones being hand chosen by The Lord to be saved...
