Many random thoughts as I am awake this late. We have friends with a sick baby & friends traveling & tons going on & it all makes me think about what is important & what am I doing about it.
I need to (want to) take a misson trip, but I hate leaving my kids - is God asking me to grow? Is my sweet suburbia my mission field? I may not be in the huts in African orphanages, so what does my ministry look like? Is it what God wants it to look like? I hope so . . . I pray that I am following Him & what He has in store for us. These 3 blessings are at beautiful points in their lives - they are my mission field. Them & their friends & the families that God puts in my path. I am not called to the pulpit (everyone can breathe a sigh of relief) but I am called to serve & at this stage in our lives serving looks like a meal & laundry & a carpool & a playdate. I pray I will know when it is time to expand & make it look differently. Although I have a feeling the laundry mission will forever be on the list.
Time for this Mommy to sleep
