Conclusions

Jason talked about perspective in his first blog when he was finally on Israeli soil. Over the past 11 days I have had the chance to examine some things in my life and this is what I have come up with .... 

• Sunday mornings waking up with out the smell of coffee and the sound of him praying the heavens down....sad :(
• the Parsonage has STRANGE noises in the middle of the night.
• It's ok to say NO to family, friends, church members and strangers. I have always struggled with allowing myself to take on more than I should and to feel quilty about saying NO. Not anymore. Thank you Jesus! I am realizing I CANT do it all and the Lord doesn't expect me to.
• I am surrounded by some of the most amazing people. I have the best girl friends in the world. Even when the enemy tries to tell me I am alone I am surrounded by the very best.
• The trip last year to General Assembly that we took was truly ordained by God. In a whirlwind of hurt, and anger probably the hardest year in our ministry thus far, God encouraged us. But he also showed FAVOR! Anyone could have won this trip to Israel. but GOD knew it was for Jason. I know he will never be the same.
• We have the very best of the best when it comes to a leader and Pastor at LCoG and NOT just because I am married to him. Its just NOT the same without him
• My boys have an amazing daddy and they love him, admire him and even though his "job" isnt like their friends dad's jobs they LOVE who he is. GENUINE.
• I have missed my husband more than I can express in words. We are a team. I don't do well without the other half of me. I love him.

Tomorrow's THE day! I am so ready!
