It was just about two weeks ago we found out Duane has been asked to travel to Puerto Rico for business. This is actually a huge honor for him. He, along with about a dozen others (worldwide), have been asked to come and take this calss. He was the only one asked from Colorado. He is honored and excited to take the class, but he never enjoys the time away from his family.
I wasn't excited about the timing of this trip, as he left today. However, I am excited for him.
My cup seems so dry these days. There seems to be a huge burden on me, one I can't seem to escape from. I feel all used up with nothing left to give. It seems I have someone constantly next to me, all the time. I even experience guilt (which is not of God) as I long for just one moment of peace and quiet. My quiet times have been removed from my schedule and replaced with more things to do. My plate is full ... and I feel so empty.
Duane saw the place I have been in. He wanted to give to me, nurture me and replenish everything that has been taken from me.
He booked me a ticket and I leave on Friday to join him in Puerto Rico! I get to have a full weekend with my husband, of uninterupted time with just him! And then five full week days of solitude with only my Father to reconnect and draw close.
Duane and I are very excited!
