Absent

February 28, 2006

Category: My Life

As you may have noticed, I’ve been missing as of late on thischristianlife.org. It’s the end of February and I’ve only posted twice this whole month. But it also means I’ve been working hard to sell our house, buy a new one, fix it up, and move into it. In fact, today, we close on our old house.

And then it’s over. Well, at least the hard stuff.

I plan to be more regular about posting now that life is settling back in a little. We still have to get our rooms in order, but it’s starting to feel like home now.

Congrat's on the house sale. I hear the market is soft right now. Are you moving to back Holland?

Hey Tim,

Nope. we're still in GR. But it's been good there, and God really pointed us to this house. I'll post some photos at some point.

I'm so glad you aren't moving to Holland!

pablo -- you're not absent...simply present in another place.

But it's been good there, and God really pointed us to this house.

you've been present in your garden, "...stirring in the rich compost of vision and challenge..." as Richard Foster writes in his prayer, "Be the Gardener of My Soul", which you've heard me read in your company many times.

with relentless affection,

dad (from holland :> )

chica, if you're interested in Tony Campolo's red-letter Christian ideas, check out his interview on the Colbert Report (scroll down, click Tony Campolo).
