Back to Normal?

Well it's been a week since Joey, my husband, has been back from the Philippines.  And I think I can say... things are back to normal.  It took a few days for Joey's sleep schedule to get back on the USA track and it took me a few days to get used to sleeping beside a snorer again!  Heehee.  We all missed him, although we had great friends and family take very good care of us while he was away.  Joey said the best things about his trip were being around other godly men for ten days straight, with no distractions (that's including me!) and also being in a foreign country ministering to strangers- yet they weren't strangers- they were brothers and sisters in Christ. He thought it to be so amazing that although they had never met, cultural barriers, and didn't have much in common- Jesus was the One thing that connected them together as if they were close family.  Isn't it amazing how the family of God works?  Last night we had youth group at our church that Joey leads and I help out with- it runs at the same time as a couple other ministries at church, so when we go, we see our church family.  I always leave the church anticipating the next time I get to see them.  Jesus unites His children together with His love and grace.  It's amazing.  
Anyway, after Joey shares with our church family this Sunday at church I will post some pictures from his trip! Stay tuned!
