Today I am sad. There’s much to be glad about but I’m still sad. In these 5 wks at FB, I’ve met God in real, life-changing ways. That’s something to be glad, very glad about, and I am. But the sadness persists–sadness at the loss of immediacy to the people and places that impacted me deeply. Sadness at the second hand that races around the clock.  Heaviness at the weight of my next life assignment.  But over-arching that is deep gladness for everything I’ve been given, and the hope of more. 

It is the most wonderful thing to cry and hold hope at the same time.

God can’t do WHAT?!
