Over the past few days, several people have asked us if we know yet where we are going when we leave Sheffield this summer. The answer is, we still don't know. Right now, there are possibilities to the west, in America; to the north, in Sweden; and to the south-east, in Australia. We might end up in any one of those nations, or even somewhere else as yet not showing up on our radar...
Since we have come back from holiday, Susie is talking in very positive terms about moving, living somewhere else; and Noah is positively straining at the leash to go. (That's a metaphor. We do not have him on a leash. Although today was the day Susie discovered how to shut him in the garden shed...) As for Jo and me, we just want to know now. Its not a wobble in faith - we're completely confident that God has things in hand. But this morning a friend described it as being like a kid counting-down to their birthday - they know there will be presents, but they want to know what those presents are. That describes it well. Wherever we go, it will be good; but we just want to know where we're going now...
