a musing

so I have been thinking a lot lately about how great it is that my dear friends are always around me. Not everyone has that privilege. It seems that every where I go to work or live, good friends soon follow or are already there! I went to work at Multnomah and my friend Sharon was there! Then my friend Tracy came to work there! And I made wonderful friends there as well! Then I went to work and live in Europe... and my friend Bekah went to Prague and my friends Joel and Amy were already in Slovenia and my friend Sara went to Africa (not close but same time zone!) And then several of my dear friends moved to Lithuania... And my friend Kristin is moving to Slovenia. Seriously??!!!! how good is God? It overwhelms and astonishes me how He cares for me!
You know... living in Germany and having friends in Slovenia or Lithuania is like having dear friends in Northern California if you live in Portland. That is how close it is!

So... thank you all for following the Lord's direction in your life to move for a couple years or for a long time over to that side of the world... i consider it a personal blessing from the Lord.... and I know you get to learn and grow a lot too... :-) And thank you to everyone who sends us with your prayers and financial support. You are just as important!
