the in-between

just a short muse on where we are in life.

we are in "the in-between". this is the time between when one gets "word" and when the "word" is consumated in reality.

it is one of those realities where the joys and struggles of faith ebb and flow. it is what it is. it is where faith is proven to be faith, and not just novelty or sentiment.

it is where we are right now. having been accepted to Trinity, having visited out there, knowing now that Trinity is where we are called, and having said yes to their offer - now we are in "the in-between".

now we wait. we prep the house. the dearest wife and best friend looks for a new job. and we wait. all in faith. and we pray. because that's what "the in-between" is for. it is to cultivate in us a trust and hope in the One who calls us to travel through "the in-between" in order to get to where He wants us.

so we wait in "the in-between". and we hope and we pray and we trust and we have faith in Him. even while we wait in "the in-between".
