Caylea's in Germany!
All that worry and prayer and discussion and surrender now bears fruit that our daughter made it through the U.S. border and through customs into Germany with her medication...She sent us a picture at the Frankfurt train station, awaiting the train for Stuttgart to meet Gisela, our dear friend and retired missionary, who will be hosting Caylea and the Root family for the next few days.
All the tiredness and tension of the past couple of days is now switching to the next focus: the wake and funeral of Eva Shepherd, daughter of our friends, coworkers in Healing Hearts and more than than, dear brother and sister in Christ.  Nick and Vivian are planning the wake, the service and meals, asking their Healing Hearts family to contribute food and support.  Family and friends will also be helping out in various ways, as they say good bye to a woman who died too young, leaving seven children to grieve and cope.
Our God has been so faithful.
He has given us strength beyond ourselves to engage in the activities of the weekend.
We feel borne on eagles' wings, carried by the prayers of others on our behalf.
The Lord reigns!
The next two days are known by the God who knows everything and will be directed by His sovereign hand.
By the next opportunity that I will have to blog, I am certain that I will have more testimonies of praise and glory for how our Father has done great things!
