I pray everyday, throughout the day, mostly for friends and family and for the United States and our planet. But lately I have added a selfish prayer, one that I pray about a dozen times a day. Maybe it's more of a plea than a prayer, but my heart is aching and it goes like this:
Dear God,
Thank you for my life and all the blessings and adventures you have given me. My special prayer is that you will send us back to Boise....the one place that I call "HOME". I know that the possibility is so remote that it would take a miracle from You to make it happen, but I believe in miracles. I miss my family and my support network. I am missing my nieces and nephews growing up. I want to be close to my grandparents as they age. I miss my church family. I miss the beauty and freshness of Idaho and I especially miss my pottery studio. I am broken down and tired from so many moves...I am lonely and isolated from all that was familiar. I need my haven back.
You know the desire of my heart Lord, but If it is not in your plan to answer this prayer then I pray for grace to accept what I believe is your will for our lives.
.....but please please please let us go back to Boise!
Amen

My dearest Sissy I pray that same prayer with you! I am so thankful for the internet, I get some me time with you. But we will figure it out. I loves you lots. XOXOXOXO
Oh Sherry, I do miss you! I am certain that God is going to send you back here in good time. For the time being He has something for you to in Korea...I would trade places with you if I could. :)
What you said..amen! I will talkto god and get back to ya..let you know what he says. Me and him are on a first name basis, do to my Humanitarian work that I do in the blog0o0sphere land. LOL!!
No really..come HOME!!!
You sound so terribly homesick - I hope that your wish comes true, and that you can go back home!
Sherry we miss you too. Just have faith that God knows what he is doing. Sometimes when your alone its not comforting but turn to him and keep praying. I do because sometimes you can feel alone when your not. I do hope that he brings you back to us. But right now enjoy the fact that you get to explore a new world. The kids and I love you
Hang in there, there's lots of fun and adventure in your future. Don't get bummed out -- at least you are in the same place as your partner (could be in our situation). We all love and miss you guys! Chin UP!
