Today we said 'see you later' to some great friends we've met here in Villareal. We've studied the Word together, shared life with them, worshipped together, prayed together (ALOT!), ministered together, grown together, and even went to Nicaragua with them last February! God has blessed us richly with their friendship this past 8 months and we are thankful for every day we've shared together.
Dave and Tamra are off to study Spanish in a little town in Nicaragua, where living is cheap, the school fits them and ultimately and most importantly, that God has called them too, for this next season of their life.
We will miss them terribly, but in some way, we've grown somewhat accustomed to this life of perpetual 'see you later.' We've long since accepted and understood that this life is not our home...Our home is heaven where we will be for eternity with our great King Jesus Christ. That is why in the Body of Christ, it is never 'goodbye' but always 'see you later.' Because we have the hope of eternity together.
Do you know today, with great certainty, where you will spend eternity?
If not, leave me a comment. I'd love to share with you how you can know for sure.
Have a blessed day!
Just a glimpse into our lives following JESUS as He leads us to serve Him in the nations. Thanks for stopping by!
