The End of the Story

It is our last day in Romania and many emotions are racing through my heart. Over the last decade we have had both miserable and joyous days. Life has been hard, trying, heartbreaking, pleasant, happy and triumphant. We have now come to the end of our story here in this country. It is like the ending of a good book when the last page is read. There are so many memories to share, to learn from and treasure in my heart. My life is forever changed.

Tomorrow morning we will fly back to our own country. I am asking once again for your prayers. Prayers for our safety, prayers that our luggage is not overweight and that all will go well on our trip. We are waiting with anticipation to find out what the Lord has planned for us next. I hope you will be here as He guides us through the next saga of our lives.

No need to ask - praying for you my dear friend. As you leave this chapter of your life behind, remember God is ALWAYS writing the next one!
I have to keep that in my heart about Texas - and sure enough, little by little I see ink and letters appearing on the pages!
Hey - I'm gonna have to blog about that!
Happy flying. God bless you and give you safety and rest.

After staying up til 2AM to finish it, I still hate when a good book finally ends and am so excited to get started right away on the sequel!
Continuing to pray for you,
Angel

Thanks for sharing your journey, Karen. I has been/continues to be a good read. Of course, my prayers are with you! Have a nice trip. You, like Abraham & Moses, are stepping out in faith. God said to move, with no idea where you are headed - God blesses that kind of faith. Looking forward to seeing where he leads.
Blessings, Jane

Well I didn't make it back during the party. I pray your move goes well. Always bittersweet to say goodbyes, but God has something else waiting. Blessings to you.

My prayers are with you as you all return to the states!

We are currently serving in Russia and are here in the states for a short break before we return in June.
