“We ought to give thanks for all fortune: if it is good, because it is good, if bad, because it works in us patience, humility and the contempt of this world and the hope of our eternal country.” C.S. Lewis
This Thanksgiving, my hope and prayer is that your hearts are reminded of all that God has done in your life…for the moments that take your breath away and remind you of His goodness as well as the moments that bring us to our knees in tears of desperation. These moments are grace as well, for they usher us back into the reality that He is God and this is not our home.
I am thankful for all of you, your prayers and partnership in this journey, the Haitian men and women whose resiliency and joy convict me towards greater faithfulness, and for the Trinity, whose presence and power has moved me from death to life.
