It's been hard to keep up this site with everything else I've had going on. I am getting ready to wrap up my first six months with OM-Operation Mobilization. It's gone by so fast. In many ways, I miss living in Europe - especially the architecture. I was always fascinated with the old buildings, and beautiful architecture around me when I lived in Europe.

Now I am living in beautiful Georgia ... if you have any doubt, look at this picture.  This was taken just as I was leaving the office a few nights ago. Sunset was just beginning and it cast it's last minute lighting over the front area of our office. I was taken in by the colors and felt like I had entered a private moment as God, in His art studio, put the finishing touches on today's art project. I felt privilege to be a part of it. And in minutes it was gone. If not for this pic, I would most likely not even be able to recall what it looked like.

I need to take more 'moments' to remember that God is also creating His art IN me. Sometimes it feels like I'm needing to start all over, but then I remember that sometimes you have to put one layer on the canvas before you can build toward the real picture. I am an art work-in-progress. On the days when it feels like it's not going to turn out, I can remember that in a few minutes, the lighting will change, and tomorrow is always another day.

Old Site Revisited

Since MobileMe has now gone away, so has my new(er) website, so for the time being, I will use this site until I figure out another solution ... or perhaps Blogger has brought me back to where I first begun :)

I've been many places since my last posting on this Blogger site, but am finally 'settled' in Tyrone, Georgia. It's green, it's plush, it's rural, it's friendly, but it can also be occasionally humid :) ... but I'm finding it's typically only humid between 10 pm and 5 am. Yes, I've had either a few sleepless nights, or airport runs in the wee hours of the morning (thus, experiencing humidity at 4 am). But I'll live because I know it's where I am supposed to be. 

Keep coming back here (if anyone is still viewing this site), and I'll try to do better at keeping it updated. My schedule is quite hectic right now, so we'll see how much I can keep up with this intention. Until then ...
