God is with us in the goodbyes.
Because the hand of the Lord was upon me, I took courage. Ezra 7:28b
The man who loves God is known by God. I Cor. 8:3
There is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live. I Cor. 8:6
The gracious hand of our God is on everyone who looks to Him. Ezra 8:22b
O Lord You know me. You know when I sit and when I riase.
You know my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down.
You're familiar with all my ways. You hem me in - behind and before.
You have laid Your hand upon me. Ps. 139:1-3 & 5
Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God! I Cor. 10:31

| Spent the weekend with Lydia in Chicago before saying goodbye. |
 |
| We were blessed by a meaningful worship service with not just Lydia's church, Subka Sahara, but with all 12 (or was it 15?) Park Churches. Inspiring to hear them reaching Chicago for Jesus! |
Then we had to say goodbye...it's hard seeing my kids cry so hard...have to separate...I wish I could take their pain away...thankful for the love in the sadness...thankful God is in the hard with us...

| My precious Heart to Heart group. I love these ladies! I am honored to see the Lord at work in their lives. It's powerful and beautiful. I am humbled by their love, appreciation, and encouragement. |
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain
Leave to thy God to order and provide
In every change He faithful will remain
Be still, my soul, thy best, thy heavenly friend
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end
Be still, my soul, thy God doth undertake
To guide the future as He has the past
Thy hope, thy confidence, let nothing shake
All now mysterious shall be bright at last
Be still, my soul, the waves, and winds still know
His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below
In you, I rest, in You, I found my hope
In you, I trust, You never let me go
I place my life within Your hands alone
Be still, my soul
Be still, my soul, the hour is hastening on
When we shall be forever with the Lord
When disappointed, grief, and fear are gone
Sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored
Be still, my soul, when change and tears are past
All safe and blessed, we shall meet at last
In you, I rest, in You, I found my hope
In you, I trust, You never let me go
I place my life within Your hands alone
Be still, my soul
In you, I rest, in You, I found my hope
In you, I trust, You never let me go
I place my life within Your hands alone
Be still, my soul
Be still, my soul
Be still, my soul
