meant to be
last post was hoping for a new story to be told.
we both decided it needed to be filmed outside. then it rained.
we agreed on a day the next week, then one of us had to bail. that happend a couple of times.
now we just agree that it needs to be done, but her story has come to another middle so to speak, so we are waiting for God to do what He does to completion.
It really reminds me for some reason of our move back to michigan. We were happy in hawaii, many people who move there find they don't really like island life. we did.
we had plenty of friends, they were our family, they were our church, and our support.
we didn't have much money, but none of us did.
we started to settle and look for a house, or land to build a house. nothing lined up, and nothing lined up. then after one afternoon looking at lots, alli and i came home, sat down and knew that God was telling us it was time to move back to michigan. every january since then i look at our photos with longing.
i don't know why this reminds me of the bold stand projects, maybe the months of delay have caused a feeling of similarity between that event 3 years ago and now, but i hope that God allows this vision to continue, if not with me, then someone. i hope that people will still watch what has already been put online. i hope that it impacts just one person.
and maybe that is it. the one person that God wanted to reach through this thing has been reached. maybe.
maybe not.
maybe we lived in hawaii to teach us one thing: to rely on God for everything, a lesson that, to be honest, i still am learning.
and maybe until we learn that more, we cannot move back.
no we aren't moving, i was just dreaming out loud there for a second.
