Oh yes, those in-between seasons can be hard, Steve! They also can be so exciting as we anticipate what God is going to do. I'm praying that the Lord surprises you in unexpected ways and that you find rest as you wait.

Steve, your words are like healing salve to my soul. Thank you so very much for being open and sharing your burdens. I know the Lord will bless you.....he always will. So sorry I missed you during my last visit. I was overjoyed to see Danae, Ben, Yinka, Clare, Joe (of that young man), Becky and others. My heart is overflowing with joy. Love to you always!

Hi Steve, great words, I’ve found that if God takes something away from you He will replace it/him/her with something better that will help us to grow more and more like Him. It can sometimes be difficult to see how at the time but He doesn’t replace good things/people with things that are worse, God has a plan and I am so blessed that we/ I am a part of it all.God’s blessings to you, your family and your Church family
