"Joshua set up at Gilgal the twelve stones they had taken out of the jordan. He said to the Israelites, 'In the future when your descendants ask their parents, 'What do these stones mean?' tell them, 'Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.' For the LORD your God dried up the Jordan before you until you had crossed over. THe LORD your God did to the Jordan what he had done to the Red Sea when he dried it up before us until we had crossed over. He did this so that all the peoples of the earth might know that the hand of the LORD is powerful and so that you might always fear the LORD your God.
This past Sunday we listened to a sermon at Capitol Hill Baptist Church by Brad Wheeler on the first five chapters in the book of Joshua and I was struck by his challenge to create reminders of God's provision in our lives. Whether that comes in the form of stones or a journal, it is important to remember how God has been faithful to us, and to acknowledge his powerful hand.
My hope is that this blog will help me remember God's provision for us, his guidance and love, especially as our little family (Michael Ball, Ronaldinho & I) embarks on this new adventure in the Foreign Service.
Thank you for supporting us on this journey.

Looking forward to hearing where you end up. And I'm glad Ronaldinho will be along for the ride.
