I miss random IMs from
Last week I caught up over the phone with Sara, Christopher's ex-wife, for the first time in a year or so. Sounds like God's seen her through so much in the divorce, though I'm well aware that it's a pain that rarely fully vanishes, even when God uses it for redemptive and refining purposes. I'm not sure that's a tension that's ever meant to be dismissed on this side of Heaven.
She's released from the corpse their marriage became, even though she fought for it, and is seeing so much of God's faithfulness on the other side. She's grown a ton and come to own her faith in ways that may come only through suffering. And she's considering a future with another man (which I assumed was the case when she made contact again). I'm just glad she can have hope.
Travelocity sent me tunes for my trip to Atlanta next week. Is it silly to be counting the days?
