Homesick...
I have heard a voice...calling me to Himself through loneliness and homesickness. A place where feelings run deep and the heart seeks.
A cool evening breeze, palm trees silhouetted against an azure blue sky on a tropical morning - these scenes of beauty thrust forth feelings from within me. A longing, a yearning for home. To belong.
Yet where is home? California, Washington, Ohio, Chiang Mai - all these hold a piece of my heart. However, none can fully satisfy my longing. I go to one place,and I miss another.
I know now why I'm called a pilgrim. I was created for eternity,
for the "land that stretches afar" as Joni E. Tada would say.
Made of dust, but made for more.
I'm learning more of leaning on Him. To be fully resting in my Jesus...that is Home. He is Home.

Its a quiet Sunday afternoon...ahh. Perfect time to re-enter the blogging world :)
Since our website can only be written on from Martin's laptop, I decided I would like to start my own blog, here.
I would like to share with you about our life in Thailand...from a wife/mother perspective. Things I see and think about, new recipes I am trying (that's one of my favorite things to do!), or a funny saying from our children, or the ups and downs of home school.
