Why do those words strike such a feeling of pride, joy, happiness within me? I experienced it and thought nothing of it when I first began reading Letters from Thailand shortly after the last December's tsunami. Today I experienced it again when I came across Postcard from London. It's not limited to Bruderhof, either. Any time I learn of a community of believers pulling themselves together and donating souls to places of need, oftentimes for long-term committments.
This day five months ago my life underwent a tremendous transition. I embarked on a new journey with Cathy. Her home became my home, and mine hers. We vowed to join together in this life as an act of faith in the kingdom of God here today. These five months have been filled with a combination of new roller coaster rides and the delicate hidden changes that happen inside a cocoon. Hallelujah! Praise God for his goodness and the life he gives us to be his new creation!
