Comfort Seeker

| | Comments (5)

My fondest recollection of our recent trip to Cuba was the weather. If you follow Darryl's blog you know the highlights but the photo here is worth a second look! Coming back to Canada with -35 C weather really made me seriously say "Why do we continue to live here?" After all, there are alternatives, places where it is warmer, places by the ocean, places that don't get so cold that they have ice formations on the insides of the windows in their houses. So why stay? I told Darryl, "You have 3 years to get your next degree and then we're moving!" I was not completely kidding. I can list alot of rational reasons for making a move in this direction (South - and I'm not limiting myself to this particular continent!)

So my bubble burst when I reviewed my last blog entry and reread the part about not becoming comfortable in this world. Comfort Seeker - not part of the disciple job description. So... I'm crawling back on the alter, once again surrendered. Until God moves me I'm living to praise Him here - end of story.

While I agree that when it gets cold I do dream of southern destinations, I also have to remind myself of when it's +30 + humidity I wish for cooler temperatures ... so indeed I praise God for allowing me to live in an area where we truly know variety of weather!

Char,
Brian, in an earlier comment mentioned that although you do not post very often, when you do, it is profound. I agree. Thank you for being so real. You have no idea how much that touches me.
Incidentally, we continue to pray for your father. Please pass on our love and best wishes.
