Past Week
I can't explain this past week. I don't know where to start, or even whether I should start. I don't have the words to explain the overwhelming sense I have that God's Spirit is moving. Everywhere.
I don't know that I have ever prayed this much. Prayers that actually mean something to me, not just words that I'm borrowing. Prayers that drain me, even if they last for only fifteen seconds.
I have had conversations that are long and deep and that keep me awake at night.
I am exhausted, and ever more convinced that God is very much at work and involved in our lives.
In the past week, the Mom of the family I live with has become one of my favourite people on this planet. The family is moving in June. I thought I'd left the incessant goodbyes in Geneva. But it looks like they're following me wherever I go.
Still, this week has been amazing.
And Aslan is on the move.

Thais...great to hear that you are being profoundly shaped at this point. I know it sounds harsh, but I am actually quite encouraged by your capacity to express whats going on for you!
I wonder what it would be like to change the header photos on your blog based on what you are experiencing during a certain week. The solemness of this message stands in stark contrast to the photos on the header!
But nevermind that...thanks for the encouragement and keep on being shaped!!
your friend....jc
