Fall

I love the fall! There is something about that cooler weather rolling in that I find energizing. I love to burn some candles and set to work in the kitchen on a hearty fall soup. Usually fall is filled with excitement and energy at our house with the anticipation that the holiday season is just around the corner. This year our house is also filled with excitement and energy but instead of our focus being on on the upcoming holidays we are preparing for a new city, to return to the states for a home service visit and moving our home into storage. A year ago we certainly didn't anticipate this! God has moved in some amazing ways over the past year. His hand has guided us to a new place, new roles, new team and new home. It is a lot of change but He is with us. In the midst of so much change He is constant, a pillar of strength, presence and comfort. I am so thankful!

Fall... oh yes... fall.
It was nice and cool here yesterday.
about 88F.
ahh...
Maybe I'll have some soup...
Actually we'll start having decent weather any day now and it will be very pleasant through December.

We were in your shoes about a few months ago (packing stuff into storage... new city... furlough, etc) so I can truly understand the paradoxes you are feeling about it all right now. Thanks for sharing.
