Tomorrow is the day. I have tried to post a couple of times, and keep hitting road blocks as I have had struggles with my internet connections. I hope I will get this through, as it will be my last chance to post until I return from Taize.
I am almost ready to start thinking about this. I have avoided it until now. I haven't thought much about leaving my husband Glenn home alone, until today. Who will know if he is home sick, or hurt? I asked him to make plans to call someone daily. After all, you never know.
And how many other things have I not even thought about, which will start tugging at me once I am in the air? Maybe I should have focused earlier. But earlier times were filled with earlier things. So many things to tend to, each of which must be given their full attention. And so here I am, down to the wire.
My prayers are with each of you. I pray that God will be with you, and guiding you in these days, just as I hope to be guided. Perhaps you can set aside a little time each day, say, half an hour or so. Imagine that it might be the same time as I am in worship, or bible study. Invite God into that time with you. Try not to struggle or question. Just sit comfortably, just as you might with a good friend. Relax, and don't work too hard at it. Listen: you just might hear God in the patter of rain or the chatter of frogs.
If I can find a computer, I will post while I am ther. Otherwise, see you when I get back.
Peace and blessings,
Bette
