Reality

Dear friends and family,
Reality has hit us pretty hard these last couple weeks. With our upcoming move back into training getting closer every day we've been forced to look at our lives and re-evaluate some things. I'm amazed at how easy it has been to lose focus of what's really important. Money, and children, and bills, and the daily up keep of our apartment and car can seem so important at the time, but some how in the middle of it all we seem to have lost our focus on Christ. Money-God provides, children-God will take care of them, bills-God provides, and the rest is all temporary worldly things. We've been spending time once again focusing on our relationship with Christ, digging into His word and working to make ourselves more useful to the mission of spreading the Gospel.

I thank the Lord that He has opened our eyes once again and not let us stray. Please be in prayer with us as we look toward what God would have for our lives in the future.

Dieneke, for the both of us
