I love how you make room for your family. I've enjoyed linking up from time to time with TWW. I know that whatever God does (or doesn't do) with your blog, you will continue to bring Him glory and honor with your life. So thankful to "know" you through blogging.

Know you will be missed in the sweet community you've built, but how exciting to follow where God is clearly leading.

But, I know without a doubt that these *stirrings* in your heart, and your decisions are all part of the wonderful journey of JOY that God is leading you on this year.

I know that His call is what we all desire and what we all "should" be listening for and to. I hold you in my prayers as He unfolds His glorious plan for these next steps. I also praise Him for bringing your husband home to the USA safely and will be with you soon. Just know that I think you are mighty special even without ever meeting you.

As you answer that call, you are also preparing to welcome your man home again. It's a time of assessing and rejoicing. Priorities are being set that will bless you in your walk with the Lord and bear fruit in days to come. Obedience will be rewarded. There is an exciting period ahead as you wait to see how these things will unfurl for you and your loved ones.<br />Your sweet presence will be missed here and I am grateful there will be a "see you later" time when you can report on all you are learning. And I truly appreciate your honesty in these words, "But if I am placing writing before time with God how can I claim my words are God inspired?" because they speak for us all. Thank you for all you have done and all that is yet to come as you surrender and see what God will do next. Blessings, love and prayers. :) xxJoy Lentonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03486637586238798088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4464807136237482773.post-57504858683366469572014-09-17T14:10:12.711-05:002014-09-17T14:10:12.711-05:00I'm so blessed by watching you seek God in a n...I'm so blessed by watching you seek God in a new way.

I am so excited he is safely here and close. I am so thankful for the example you are setting of seeking out that which is the priority, God and your husband, rather than choosing something that will not be His best for you. What a good and faithful friend to continue to diligently draw you in and share truth, it is a God-thing to have those people in our lives. Praying for His best to envelope you and to fill you, preparing you as you get ready to receive the answer to your prayers all these months and so excited that your husband is nearly home. <br />Many Blessings and Prayers,<br />DawnDawnhttp://www.journeysingrace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4464807136237482773.post-50045324751326783282014-09-17T08:37:10.018-05:002014-09-17T08:37:10.018-05:00Oh, Beth!

That God is increasing in your life and time commitments. It is good all around. Of course you know I will miss you here, but it is good to know that God has given us multiple ways to send the love.

And I think I feel you in more ways than one. Trying to figure out the balance between home/work/writing and wanting to be present for my family and do the right thing…it’s not easy for me to decipher at times. I love your heart for Christ and I can so understand what and why you are doing this. God is not through with you, He’s on the verge of something great. I started leading a bible study at my church and I have to say it’s been the most thrilling thing I’ve been a part of. Like I just feel like I’m supposed to be there. So I get this. I’ll be following your journey and cheering madly all the way.

I find myself in the same place. Rather than strive to do things for God, I find I'm perfectly content if I never have another opportunity and just get to spend time with Him every day. I think this is where He's been leading me all along. <br /><br />Letting go can be difficult, and I've been surprised (though I shouldn't have been) that for the most part He's taken what I've offered up to Him.

I love the power of a relationship with Him. I am praying that your reunion with your husband is renewing and restoring. I pray that your involvement with the BSF is a time for deep God-soaking words straight to your soul. I pray that you are used by God for mighty things.<br />As I move to the next phase of my life, I would appreciate prayer that God speaks to me as clearly as He is to you and that my next stops honor God in everything.
