Preparing to Leave

An Outpouring of Love


An outpouring of love has characterized my last days here in Raleigh, and my heart is so full. The notebook from Lizzie, the party from Carolyn, the prayers from JD, the letters from Nicky, the surprise farewell from Tara, and the endless hugs from David are a few of the tangible acts of love you I have been blessed by. This makes it increasingly difficult to leave, but reinforces the fact that I must go. I must go because while I know the source of such love, a heart breaking number of souls in India do not. We do not deserve any of the perfect grace and love given to us by Christ, yet he continues to love us extravagantly and pursue our hearts intimately. The extravagant love of our Heavenly Father is waiting to be lavished upon these precious Indian people, and joy flows abundantly through my heart as I pray and believe He will use me to show that love.
