Vickie,
I have enjoyed the sabbatical with you so much. I realize that your
need was as dire as my own and undoubtedly your countenance revealed it.
Rest has been a key factor for us both. An unapologetic afternoon nap was
reward long overdue.
I have often heard you say, “I don’t know how you do it, keep going.” After I
left to do a funeral or call back. Well,
the same I thought but didn’t say about you and your keeping on. It is comforting to know that you are with me
in the every endeavor, whether typing a poem, message or reminding me of an
activity. So, you are not paid but as on
the farm, all at the eggs, drank the milk and enjoyed the harvest even if only
one sat on the tractor. Our farming is
life in partnership. There is no price
tag on that nor salary needed. It is now
an always has been, “Our ministry”, and will be until journey closes. Thank God for the fruit of partnership,
companionship and the bond of love that holds it together.
I have enjoyed long unhurried conversations that did not turn critical but
were uplifting and in a sense, purging also.
I have relished in wonderful home cooking that only you can
produce. God has protected these moments
with no crisis from home or church.
So, dance with the Lord or for Him.
Sing to the Savior from the depth of your soul. Do not hesitate or be inhibited, jump on
in. The future is ours. We own it because He owns us. Larry
