In January, I spent 10 days in India. Janelle and Katylynn stayed here in Indiana. As I said goodbye to my wife and baby that morning of departure, it was a new world for me when it came to international travel. Since getting married, all my previous international ministry trips had been done with the most important person to me at my side. This time around, I was not only leaving that person behind, I was leaving a second one that was so treasured.
While in India, I processed this new world, and I wrote this in my journal one morning. I actually posted it on this blog upon my return...
God has called me to spend my life on young people, both across the street and around the world.
God has called me to be a faithful, loyal, and loving husband.
God has called me to be a father who shows his daughter a glimpse of the love her Heavenly Father has.
Somehow, I'm convinced that all three of those callings, when submitted to Him, will be able to coexist!
