Color Me on the Move

Here is the moment I have been feeling expectantly in the air. The moment when this waiting time is finished and the call to the next mission has sounded. I so look forward to investing in Monika and Josh again. I look forward to finding ways to give our brave soldiers hope. Anticipation hangs in the air, but it is within reach now and I will grab ahold of it and start this new journey.

Color Me Balanced.

We like to think we know so much. And by we I mostly mean me. I tried so hard to make someone perfect for me because I wanted them to be. All that did was hurt us both. James doesn't have to be changed to be good for me, he just is. He is as patient, grounded, responsible, and serious as I am impatient, flighty, careless and playful. He balances all the extremes of me. I will be leaving in 2 short weeks to head back to Hinesville to serve that town with him. There is much hurt and loss there and about time for some healing.
