On our way

I'm in Dulles Airport in Washington DC; about to board the flight that will carry me to meet my wife (who travelled a day ahead of me) and our soon-to-be daughter. What an amazing gift this journey is! God has blessed us with so much over the past year of prayer and preparation, and our greatest blessings have come through our family and friends. The ways in which you have loved and supported us have been acts of love, compassion and worship. You have put "hands and feet" on the love of God in Christ and you have helped us live out the idea that real love is more than words or talk...love does. According to Bob Goff, "it becomes clear that we need to stop plotting the course and instead just land the plane on our plans to make a difference by getting to the 'do' part of faith. That's because love is never stationary. In the end, love doesn't just keep thinking about it or planning for it. Simply put: love does.". (Goff, p. xvi)
