Between

Have you ever had a time in your life, where you just can't explain the way you are feeling. It's not a bad feeling, but it's not a good feeling....ok so if your a male and your reading this, you probably don't understand, I've been told this is a female thing. Oh Joy!! :) I have been feeling that way for the last 3 weeks. I couldn't quite put my finger on what was going on and how I was feeling. Today during my quiet time, it clicked (or Beth Moore helped me click)...

Psalm 126 - 
A Pilgrim Song
 1-3 It seemed like a dream, too good to be true, when God returned Zion's exiles. 
   We laughed, we sang, 
      we couldn't believe our good fortune. 
   We were the talk of the nations— 
      "God was wonderful to them!" 
   God was wonderful to us; 
      we are one happy people. 

 4-6 And now, God, do it again— 
      bring rains to our drought-stricken lives 
   So those who planted their crops in despair 
      will shout hurrahs at the harvest, 
   So those who went off with heavy hearts 
      will come home laughing, with armloads of blessing.

Notice they are reflecting on a great time in their life, but they are also hoping for what God is going to do ahead. They are caught between. I am in that place. I look back over the last year and half and think, "God has been wonderful to me." While at the same time, greatly anticipating what wonderful things He is going to do next in Haiti. The problem, I'm not there yet. I'm between the two. I will continue to hope, He is not done with me yet,
