April _______ bring May _______

Ah, the last day of May. Weird. Time flies when you are in limbo - spiritually, emotionally, and vocationally. It seems like just yesterday that I was getting myself and a team of almost 75 people ready to go to east Africa and urban Indianapolis (that was a year ago). It also feels like it was just the beginning of September with a sense of anticipation of what I was going to discover about myself and my calling as I resigned from Grace. Now it's the end of May and I'm just trying to figure out what tomorrow's closing time is going to be like at Costco. Life comes at you fast and from unseen directions. Weird.

April was a tough month...lots of showers. So what has that brought me in May...flowers? Things that make you go hhhmmmmmm. I'm not really sure. I'm still strugglin'. I'm still scared. I'm still searchin'. But I'm also still hopeful. Still thankful. And still grace-full that God is still working on this battered and bruised tool willing to be formed. I can only chuckle at times that He doesn't throw in the trash heap. Weird.

So here comes June with all its glory and heat. I'll keep you posted as the journey continues (doesn't it always?). I wonder what pithy slogans will come out of this time...May hhhmmmmmms bring June _______. We'll have to wait and see. Thanks for being there and taking part. Your thoughts, prayers and conversations are huge! In the next couple of days or weeks I'll post something on some musing on this book I'm reading about desire and how I'm working through that.

My hands are held up high (and I'm totally pitting out. Kelly can we turn on the air?).
