call

 There is a question sitting stubbornly in our living room

and you know what?

sometimes it's hard to be married to a man who lets it stay there

who believes he is a servant of the Capital C- Church

and stays still long enough to ask 

God, what would you have me do with this question? 

who says things like
“God will take care of us no matter where we serve.”

and “I don’t like this either”

and “I don’t know what’s next.” 

who watches the kids get quiet and wide-eyed with their questions

and doesn’t smooth them over with platitudes

but invites them into prayer and tension

and waiting.

Please pray for us as we deliberate a call to St. Louis at CPH.
