I have not been keeping up with my blog as I should.
In May we moved from a small town to a big city. From a house in to a apartment. We have sold our house and this brings our family one step closer to being ready to move to Kenya to do mission work.
I have found myself feeling isolated and alone and lonely a lot more. Even though I have my family around and I attend church regularly and I go to monthly ladies meetings for fellowship yet even being around others I still feel I am alone. I have found through searching my own heart and looking at my situation that I long for Africa. I long for what I saw and I experienced over there. The people we meet and encountered for the most part were warm open and inviting. I have enjoyed talking to them and getting to know them.
I have been finding myself to combat this getting back into more times of praise and fellowship with the Lord, bible reading and application. I am finding that what I experienced over there I can have here in the presence of the Lord. Yes I need friends and connections with people but I think a lot we try to make things happen instead of allowing God to bring them to us.
