My first blog a little over a year ago ended with Revelation 21 and it seems right to encourage myself with words from this chapter again. This time, verse 4: “He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.â€?

At the heart of discipleship is movement and change. Isn't God good!

The walls still sing so loudly of the all that you mentioned, yet we must continue down this road. You are missed already! I'm at headquarters today. New job. =) People ask if I know you. A little. =)They talk about how excited they are for you guys. It's interesting to hear only about the good, the adventure, the excitement, the challenge ahead, the fulfillment of the call. Makes me feel selfish - again. But it also makes me proud. See you soon. Lisa I’ve never had so much mixed emotion about moving into a “new” place.

You really connected with the readers and they could surely feel some of your emotional struggles. Aunt Barbara called me and told me to read it because it was sad. Well...it IS sad in our worldy eyes, however, your illustration of the light says it all. Those of us who know Him...know. This IS a new book and we look forward to more blogging from you.

Definitely me! All I can say is Thank you! Thank you for going. Thank you for being willing to make these incredible sacrifices. I grew up on the mission field but there never was a time when it felt like moving to a new place as it will for your kids. And please, never feel bad for the times you don't cry. It's all in there, it chooses when to come out and when to stay dormant as you're focused on other things. God bless you guys! Oh, you’re going to make everyone cry for sure! Definitely me!

You are constantly in our prayers and thoughts. Sam Judd reminded us yesterday that when Jesus called the sons of Zebedee to go, he was also calling Zebedee to stay. There is much cost in going, and I am discovering again the cost of sending. We miss you! - Jon (for all the Swifts) Hi Renee – thanks for writing! You are constantly in our prayers and thoughts.
