Just Another Bump in the Road

So we had to move out of the Ronald McDonald house for a few weeks. Apparently someone staying at the House had chickenpox and were out in the kitchen long enough to spread it around. The doctors advised us to move out because none of our children have had it. So here we are, living in Hotel Nexus.

I have always thought of our family as the nomadic type. The word "Gypsy" seems a bit extreme, but we seem to fit the " missionary" title quite well.

Moving from one place to another is not really a problem for our kids. Although recently we have had to clarify when we say "We are going to head home soon".

It brings back to mind the truth and comfort of our ultimate citizenship of Heaven. In THIS I rest secure, not in my home (or lack of) but in the safety of My Fathers plan.

"But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior." Phil 3:20

Oh, and so far we don't think any of our kids have Chickenpox. If they do get Chickenpox, it will just be another bump in the road.
