Wrecked

I'm tired and jet lagged.

I don't feel the emotional fog that I felt coming home from Ghana but I do feel like I am just starting to process my trip and experience in China -which made for a long and sleepless night (see above: jet lag - it's a beast!)

Anyway, I found this quote a few months ago and feel like it captures where I'm at today.

"This loving orphans, whether we are able to be a family to them or not, it comes with an intangible price. We're wrecked on the inside, and we're never the same. But the freedom comes with the full abandonment of what this world tells us is right and acceptable and DO-ABLE. True freedom is found in the tide the carries us out into the deep unknown, to the things that we can only do through the Father's strength and power."
