It's Lifting.

I mean, the sense of responsibility, the care for these people and their souls, it's lifting.

All the physical things we are doing are helping the proceedings. Tonight we had our last congregation meeting and I talked to them at that level for the last time. We have plans and some people in place for what happens when we go. So it's lifting.

All these years of prayer and care and checking up and encouraging, they don't just get let go of. Because God is good, there is a lifting of the yoke for this place, and it's shifting for the next.

Already praying for the next place, the church in the field people. Starting to live into what Advent looks like there, and Christmas, and spring. Starting to take up that yoke.

And really that's how it should be, if God is in it, and we are healthy.

So it feels good, it's as it should be, and things are going to be alright. Because we prayed tonight. As a church they prayed for us, and we prayed for them.

It'll be alright.

Nite.
