Of Mice and Men

Well, we had some big plans and a big vision. We started a couple of fires which have continued to burn. We've taken a tentative step or two and set the pioneering balll rolling. But, alas, the doors for us have slammed firmly shut. Things aren't as we thought they would be, yet to be honest I saw it coming. What we were dreaming of was not, it seems, what others had in their plans, and after all we'd been through since we came here I couldn't compromise on what was in my heart and not be true to who God made me.....so we laid it down for the greater good.

After 5 years of fighting darkness, struggling with life, dreaming and more recently flag planting, a season of our lives closes and a new one begins. We stand with our leaders, but agreed to disagree on what we were to do and how to do it. That said, we trust their judgement and wisdom, and are grateful that we were allowed to pour out what was in our hearts and say some difficult things to each other in a spirit of love and mutual respect.

Change is never easy, but I'm used to it, although now I have a family to think of. Please get your praying heads on and get in touch if you know us and have something for us. Strange feeling being in limbo, but the world is our oyster.........anyone need a worship leader ?......, also willing to make tea, carry gear and put chairs out. ;)
