7 jours avant de mon anniv.

Trotting cautiously down the steep steps leading to the front door of my Sydney home, it is a typical early spring evening. The sun has long gone, & there are clouds in the sky - but it's still a winsome time of day & year.
________________

I could quite happily live where I live all my life, & never leave this reasonably comfortable city - let alone my country.

But if the Sovereign King calls this little clay-jar* daughter, His weak**, feeble & less-than-godly shepherdess, to serve foreign flocks in a foreign nation - some time before the end of her life..will she not go?

And if her Father calls her, will she go with the blessing & support of her family or fellow Servants in the Kingdom?

3e jour du printemps

Attended what must be one of the last school concerts for former students now getting ready for HSC performances & examinations (on this, the 3rd day of Australian springtime).

Time to let go.

Time to move on.

Time to start closing the door on a somewhat poignant half-decade.

What doors is God now opening..?
Only time will tell.

L/T.


P.S. Same school as that mentioned in this recent post.
