And, as strange as it seems, it helped what has started out as a not very good day so far to hear your voices on the video. I miss you guys so much and could really use a lunch date with Trish right now, but instead I am so thankful to be able to stay connected to what God is doing in you and through your lives.

Looking forward to getting to know you better! Thanks for your transparency here! It is hard to move past fear and embrace God's best. Thank you so much Lindsey!

Lots of times I think I am not willing to go there -- It is just too hard, too scary, too painful to admit what is at the heart of my fear. And I don't think until I do that God can't step in and provide reassurance. Have I told you how much I appreciate you and Trisha's hearts? So glad you guys are in Nashville.

It's so hard to get it from my head to the heart. You can know it cold and still it just doesn't seem to get through. God used my wife to convict me of that the other night. She looked at me and said "you just know more Scripture than some pastors I know but you just don't get sometimes that God's always there." Ouch. (And you know you're in trouble when your spouse gives you a big compliment followed by a "but"...) It's like you...I "know" it...I don't "feel" it. In my cache of weak analogies, I often said I felt like a knick knack God placed on a shelf somewhere and forgot about it. You know...that old toy or keychain or something that has usefulness but you forget it's there. I know how messed up that thought is because God never just tosses us aside but sometimes the heart just feels what it feels. Thanks for the encouragement today, Justin. The video's a nice touch. :) And sometimes it feels like the longest afternoon ever. :)
