Settle in. by Pam http://brkwilson.wordpress.com/2009/10/05/this-is-long-settle-in/#comment-1050 Pam Wed, 07 Oct 2009 06:37:18 +0000 http://brkwilson.wordpress.com/?p=503#comment-1050 Brooke: Again, I am amazed how God's work will get done, no matter if we decide to be a part of His plan or not; no matter "who," He will find someone and some way to get it done. I am currently doing the Beth Moore Bible Study of the Book of Esther, "It's Tough To Be A Woman." Two things jumped out at me while reading your Oct. 5 post: (1) Who knows? and (2) You may be right where you are "for such a time as this." In the Bible study, she refers to "Who knows?" Repeating, who knew? who knew? who knew? Who does know? Also, to realize that you may be right where God wants you to be, "for such a time as this." We are only asked to plant a seed. We may never see the plant bloom. Be assured that none of your labor in Belize will be in vain. You are precious, and your life shines His light through your work. Keep your eyes open to the marvelous glories the SON will lead you to find on this journey. In His Love, Pam Brooke:

It's just the thing to make you feel like you're at home and part of the bunch. Nuthin' like a good jab to make you feel all warm and cozy. And nothing like running after the bus, too. That was totally me in Schwalheim. I'd think I was all early and walk outside just to see the bus zooming by, the busdriver smugly laughing AT me, and all the neighborhood geriatrics staring. I guess that will be me in a few weeks again when we move to Mainz. I'm so glad you're finding opportunity and excitement with your work. I can't even imagine teaching girls they have rights. It seems like it would feel like you're re-inventing the wheel. Thanks for sharing all this with us. Your travels make me a more well rounded person. We got in country 6 hours ago, and we drive straight to Wiesbaden. We met with the housing, and now Doug is sitting in our housing briefing. I totally ditched. I'm that kind of wife. I have to draw the line somewhere, Army. So, I'm using the internet in the USO and they have about a billion cool trips listed in here. I wish you were coming back over here after Belize sometime. I liked your bed all decorated : ) Aw, they’re already making fun of you! It’s just the thing to make you feel like you’re at home and part of the bunch.

Lucky me! Could you please take a picture of your Richard, Anontia, the bustop, the stoop, Shawn and Bryon? It would be fun to see. I love you and pray for you constantly. You are still my hero.

It's here, again. I think it's funny, as often as things change for us by choice, when it really comes time I always think to myself (and whine to everyone), "WHAT WAS I THINKING?!" But the decision was made with a lot of thought, now what's coming out of my mouth are random emotional mumblings. : ) Take lots of pictures of your departure!!! And I was thinking of something this morning....that when you give someone else the tools to deal with their grief/trauma you give them freedom. Freedom to live. Go be His hands and feet, Brookie!
