Well, the fanfare has died down and I sit in my own bedroom across from my wife who is nursing our brand new baby girl and I think to myself, “Wow, thank you God for giving me everything I ever wanted.” Being away for so long, gives you time to reflect on who you really want to be and what you want to accomplish in life. I realized while I have been gone that I have almost everything I have ever wanted. I still have some things to accomplish in life that I feel that God wants me to do, but on the whole, the mission is clear: Be a godly leader for your family, raise your children in the ways of the Lord, and do medical missions.
The next big hurdle is the certifying board examination in October. I have been studying for that for some time now and need to kick things into high gear now. I know that God is faithful and I am excited about all the things I have learned and am learning.
I have enjoyed this little blog as an outlet for my thoughts. And now since I am no longer “abroad” (thank GOD), I will sign off.
Sincerely,
Eric
