Well, after three long and tiring days of driving from Frisco, TX we finally arrived to our home away from home in Gaithersburg, MD. The picture Rob uploaded to show me how to post a picture, though a bit random, seems somehow fitting. It reminds me that God's glory shines just as brightly in Gaithersburg, MD as in TX, and his grace is, and will be, just as sufficient for us there as here!
Our current struggles seem to be in the area of technology...it seems we really can't live without it!! Our cellphones don't work in our apartment, and our wireless connection is come and go. We feel a bit disconnected from everyone, and a bit frustrated, but it has been a great opportunity for us to meet our neighbors! Rob, as I am typing, is off to ask another neighbor what cellphone service they have! I think he is actually enjoying it a bit!
And so in closing, I am reminded of a line from my favorite movie, "Anne of Green Gables", where she is off to college and writing a letter home to Marilla and Matthew and writes, "And so, the sun will keep on rising and setting whether we get phone and internet service or not." (italics mine) Thanks Anne, for keeping it all in perspective!
