In the car, after work today, I started to pick up the cell phone and call home like I always do. Then it hit me. There is no one home! No one waiting for me; No one eager to see me, debrief with me, pray with me. It felt very empty and I felt very alone in the world at that moment. I parked the car and then I lost it for several minutes – another tidal wave had hit me.
I called and sent texts to a few people. And I found out once again that I have lots of family and friends that do care about me. Eventually the tidal wave went back out to sea and I was calm again.
But I need to finish that phone conversation I never had today. “I want you to know honey, that I am on my way home. I may be delayed for awhile, I can’t tell you exactly how long, there are some things the Lord wants me to do – don’t even know what they all are yet, but as soon as I get them done, I will be home."
