How blessed I am. Rob has been in Costa Rica for the past 4 days. I have found rest in our quiet home. The subtle diffence between loneliness and solatude has been re-awakened. We all need solitude. Time for mediation, rest, long bubble baths and time with girlfriends. I was overwhelmed this afternoon as a dear friend called me in crisis. She is experiencing similar (yet not the same) challanges that Rob and I have faced in our marriage. To be able to speak confidently and authentically that God not only heals but fully restores broken friendships, marriages, child parent relationships, etc. brings me to tears. To know that a higher power is caring for us even when we don't deserve is humbling. I am filled with gratitude that today I can speak without shame of our struggles and may they bring hope to others.
I am anxiously awaiting to hear Rob's voice for the first time since last week. I can't wait. Give thanks for my time of solitute and his time in Costa Rica. More to come on his latest journey.
