"Pressing on..."

The other day I was watching Star Trek Voyager, and Ensign Harry Kim was trapped in an alternate reality. It was probably due to some kind of rift in the space/time continuum, but I have no idea what that means. Anyway, although everyone around him, including his fiance, was unaware of it, and he was living out the life they expected him to live, he knew something was wrong and he was trapped in this dreamlike state.

When I slow down for the evening, I begin to feel like Harry. As though I am in a dream and I will wake up and things will be back to the way they were. And there will not be the hurt, the stress, and the lonliness that comes with losing one of your ship's senior officers.

I am so proud of my team over the past two weeks. They have done nothing but show love, and pray, and acknowledge the sovereignty of God in all things. We are rebuilding and, as one of our board members encouraged me this morning, "Pressing on."

Please pray for us during this difficult transition time.
