Wishing we could do it all…

We wish we could do it all.  But we can’t!  It’s a major frustration right now as we try to see people, but we’re having trouble seeing everyone we want to see.  Perhaps some people are thinking that we’re ignoring them, or that they’re not a priority, but that’s not the case.  We’re trying to get things planned but it’s very difficult.

We did have a good weekend.  I had a good time in Cochrane at the First Baptist Church there.  Thanks to all of you there for your warm hospitality and spiritual encouragement!  Shari was back in Stouffville, and was able to celebrate her birthday on Sunday with some cousins, which was nice.  We seem to be in Ontario quite often for Shari’s birthday, but always with different relatives! 😛

So we’re all back together again, which is nice.  We find ourselves often busy with the unexpected – a flood in the place where we’re staying, the realization that we need to go and find a new car seat for Nathanael because he’s growing so fast, van repairs (you heard about that one), and so many more regular parts of life that refuse to be put off just because we want to stop by and see our friends.

So we just trust that you in Southern Ontario will be understanding, and that the Lord has a plan in all these frustrations of life!  We will try to be faithful in the mean time – do what He has called us to do, and be what He has called us to be.

It’s hard to coordinate schedules, but if you have some free time to see us while we’re here, please give us a call or contact us from the website.  That would be a help.  Thanks for your prayers!
