Lizzie is coming home ...


She's on a trans-Atlantic flight from Heathrow to RDU and arrives this afternoon. Lucie and Rachel will be there to greet her. I'm so psyched to give her a bear hug when she gets home.

I have GOT to recommend The Shack, the author came to our church, and though I missed the beginning of his speech, you like I can hear his thoughts on his fictional work here at: http://www.newhopenc.org/message-videos/the-shack/dr-benji-kelley-with-special-guest-william-paul-young.html I suggest you watch this with tissues in hand. If you've ever been ashamed, hurt, depressed ... this book offers (as an allegory) a view of God in His greatness, fullness as a triune person.

I'm also going to ask you to pray for my Mom, who is going through a dark time now and is at Lakes Region Hospital. My siblings are visiting her, but being remote is tough (a curse and a blessing). Please wrap her in your prayers, that she might be able to get out from under the fog of depression. She's also lost much weight, so if the doctors are missing some underlying disease that is a source for the depression, pray that they might find what's going on.

Holy Smokes! You weren't kidding when you said Liz was staying in a REALLY nice place! It is absolutely stunning. The landscape too of course. :-)
