Providence and Peace



When were first started planning life on the road I was filled with excitement and fear. The fear was of the unknown, never knowing where we were going to end up or if our needs were going to be provided for. I am beside myself and thankful for the providence we have encountered on our ventures. 

We have never gone hungry. We have always had everything we need and sometimes our needs were met by other giving individuals. People have welcomed us into their homes and fed us. People have welcomed us around their campfire. It can be scary venturing off into the unknown but one thing I have learned is that the Lord always provides. And still I worry about our next destination or money. After all this time, after every single time we are provided for, I still worry. But I am learning. I am learning to relax and enjoy blessings from others. 

Thank you everyone who has provided for us while we have been on the road. We are thankful for your open and giving hearts and most of all, your friendship. To me this is living in faith, to go out into the unknown but believe everything will always be okay. Sometimes in order to learn and grow we have to step out of our comfort zone and learn to trust. Which in no way have I mastered. I used to be so afraid to venture out but the more I do, the less I fear.

What are you afraid of? Leap out of your comfort zone and discover a part of yourself you never knew.
