Late on Wednesday I flew from Atlanta back to Seattle. It's been over a year since I've been back, and I forgot how beautiful it is here. We've been able to eat outside in the yard every night. Eat at one of my favorite Mexican hole in the wall restaurants in the whole world. Pick cherries from the tree in the back yard. Play Mexican Train Dominos. And laugh at the effects of a jetlagged Casey.
 
In my last blog I talked about how I still know that I am in the right place, but was wondering if I am doing what God wants me to be doing. Right now we are understaffed, so I know that there isn't really a chance of my job description changing anytime soon.  But having this time of reflection and just seeking the Lord has been wonderful (my coworkers and boss have given me freedom to take more time off during the week, and while in Seattle I am not working at all).
 
God gently reminded me that I have been called to ‘widows and orphans'. This doesn't mean that I have to stop what I am doing and have a bad attitude about sitting behind a desk five days a week. I don't think I'll be moving overseas again any time soon. However I am praying that I can raise enough support to allow me to go back out and visit teams when they are on the field.

I'm looking forward to the rest of my time here in Seattle... the chance to catch up with family and friends, sharing with my church (NorthLake Christian Church in Bothell @ 10am on July 19th), the mission board and prayer team, as well as having time to just relax and spend with the Lord. Please pray that I will have time to spend with everyone that I need to, I will hear God continue to speak, and that I will continue to raise the support that I need for my paycheck as well as to go out on the field.
