Limited Connectivity

Well, you may or may not know now. We lost the 3rd apartment. Apparently the developer sold the building before signing the leases. I was distraught the day I heard, but my superstar lifted me up with encouragement and got me past the stupidity of an apartment, and worry in such frivolous things.

We now reside in the basement of my parents, and I love them dearly for welcoming us with open arms....and I pray we can not bother them for a couple of months.

Superstar had her girls weekend, and won her 5k race! She rocks.

We do not have internet access at our new residence, and I realize now just how much I do online. It really appears to be important to me to have access. I hope I'm not overzealous.

Today, we stopped at Woodside to say goodbye to our home. Superstar shed a few tears, and I didn't. Peace from God I think in walking away from a dream I had as a young man in building my own house in the woods. Thank you, Jesus for taking that from me. We are officially (as far as I know) the first members of communitas to sell our home. A milestone for the team, and I praise Him for His work. I continue to pray for Natester who will create his own stories in that house and beyond.

Izzy's baptism yesterday-much prayer for her and her walk with Jesus. That the people she is surrounded by might pour into her heart and God will call her to Himself early and often.

See, I can't seem to dive deeper with limited connectivity....although my mind races with multiple profound blog posts each day as I live in Wales......much more to come. Grace and Peace to my peeps.

Too, Too, Too Much Fun

Alright. So you're sitting in front of your computer right now. And you're saying to yourself at about 8:00 pm: "Huh. It's been dark out for nearly three and a half hours now. What else can we do for fun?" Well, sir, we have the answer. Take a look at this.

Righteous or Unrighteous?

Today, as I thoroughly enjoyed my walk to the school, I pondered quite a few things, as I often do on my walk. Sometimes I pray for people like Hammy, Jimmer, sick pete, mg, cdubs, pastor, beary, and the like. But today, I simply reveled in the fact that God loves me. As I watched the snow melting away, I could see the dirt and garbage left behind throughout my walk. I think of how God melts away our dirt and our garbage. How he longs to be in relationship with us, and how he cleanses our sins from existence. As the sun rose, I couldn't help but think of the verse I read this morning in Matthew 5:45 - "...that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." I pondered if Jesus was walking with me, which of the above categories would HE put me in? I'm pretty sure the unrighteous one at times. But yet he still walks with me and leads my steps. He brings the heat ...

Casa de Kelly - a nice place to dine.

It has been a challenging week for me personally. Struggling with some things personal in nature, nothing that I need to go into, but just working hard to keep my chin up. But encouragement comes to me through others that follow God. Thanks to sick Pete for his encouragement to me this week. Thanks to BK for his prayers and vulnerability. But my biggest thanks goes out to the kkft. After a tough week, I got an email yesterday from superstar saying she was hoping to take me out to dinner for drinks, conversation, and even dessert. But no sitter. So her and the girls were working on 'casa de kelly' restaurant in our apartment. I am almost certain it was the best restaurant I have ever visited in my life. Candlelight, mexican food and latin music, time to sit and chat with my wife, the girls serving us and giving us privacy (even had the taboo buzzer to call them when we needed something :)), it was my best night of the year by far. But perhaps the biggest part of the n...
