\"Starting\"<\/a>

Starting<\/p><\/div>\n

Part of my job is starting things.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve started a ministry. I\u2019ve started a family. I\u2019ve started a home for cancer patients. I\u2019ve started mountains of paperwork. I\u2019ve started a non-profit in Mozambique. I\u2019ve started a 16 hour plane ride with 4 children. I\u2019ve started a set of shelves for my living room. I\u2019ve started reading a book.<\/p>\n

Part of my job is seeing things to an end.<\/p>\n

\"Starting<\/a>I\u2019ve seen that book to an end. I\u2019ve seen my baby-making days to an end. I\u2019ve seen airplane rides come to an end. I\u2019ve seen treatment for cancer come to an end. I\u2019ve seen lives of those cancer patients come to an end.<\/p>\n

Now I\u2019m back home after 3 months in the USA and it\u2019s time to start something again.<\/p>\n

When we went on the first of our many plane rides back in March, I had to see the doors of Casa Ahav\u00e1 close because we had no one to care for the patients while we were gone.<\/p>\n

Now we\u2019re home and ready to start again.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We have a half an acre. We have building plans. We have the resources to build Casa Ahav\u00e1 anew and be a home to 12 instead of just 4. We are just waiting on Mozambique and her municipal leaders to give us the green light and we will put shovels in the ground.<\/p>\n

We are ready.<\/p>\n

\"Casa<\/a>Until then, we keep serving our King. Until then we are a home to the 4 we can fit.<\/p>\n

This is the Kingdom of God at work. This is the Body of Christ intent on being unified across oceans. This is my job as part of that glorious bride.<\/p>\n

What an honor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
