Sometimes I wish God would reveal the future, but generally looking back I'm glad He didn't! If your travels bring you through Waxhaw, stop in and stay with us. <br /><br />Jeff Johnson<br />JAARSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220373833294758704.post-62783540393868749132016-08-14T14:07:40.939-07:002016-08-14T14:07:40.939-07:00Well, maybe I missed it but after reading the post...Well, maybe I missed it but after reading the post above I still have no idea what you guys will be doing in Laredo! Is this just a move back to the states with a job or is there a ministry involved?

Fr...Oh man, I can't believe I missed this post. Friends, dear friends. My heart goes out to you. God does work in crazy ways and it's difficult when He leads you down a path and then changes the trajectory. Kyle and I have been on this type of journey ourselves. The last 8 months and most recent 4 have been full of anxiety, depression, conflict, and tears. It's so hard to let go of a path that He led you on and then you cling to, not wanting to let go. But His new direction can't be ignored. I really understand this. I would really love to talk with you, Ashley. I would love to talk and pray for you because Kyle and I love you both and support you both. We want to be with you as much as we can, even if separated by distance. Please let me know when I can call you.

But I totally understand the reverse culture thing; we've been back 18 months and I still feel it. My heart is still in two places. I miss so much about the DR, but we have no doubt that this is what God has planned for us now. It's strange when God plants something in your heart and you feel it's forever; then He says, "Nope, that was just to get you going. Now, this is the next step..." So glad to see you following HIM! We will be praying for you as you make some major changes and adjustments. (Wish you could totally ignore the naysayers; but sadly, they never seem to go away.)~~anna~~https://www.blogger.com/profile/00810332037766841192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220373833294758704.post-39579499577645366832016-07-13T12:22:57.399-07:002016-07-13T12:22:57.399-07:00I know you personally understand this.
