We’ve never met (...Thanks for sharing this brother. We’ve never met (I don’t think) but we’re going through a similar “end” on the mission field and are returning home with lots of unfinished plans and lots of unfulfilled hopes. <br /><br />The final paragraph (quoted below) has really resonated with us and encouraged us to entrust it all to the Lord and leave it in his capable and kind hands. Thanks for ministering to us in this season of questioning. <br /><br />“There is so much in life that we start but are not able to finish; so many bits that don't quite seem like finished projects. Even the projects which do seem finished often don't seem to obviously fit into a 'whole life'. Life is a series of fragments. And yet the Lord is able to collect all the fragments of our lives, and make of them one whole: a really, whole person, fully integrated, and beautiful, like a mosaic. Nothing wasted (remember the fragments of bread they gathered in Galilee!), everything properly placed.”<br /><br />Glory to God. And keep running the race, brother.
