Empty Evening

Sfax, Tunisia     //     Summer 2013

The night the family and I drove to the local park during Ramadan
in hopes of meeting locals and sharing the Gospel.
After an hour of waiting, the little ones got tired so we drove home.
The reality of long-term missions.
Sometimes there will be nights when no one comes out.
Times when you will be greeted with empty swing sets, 
see-saws, and the low rumble of cars driving by.
Keep pressing on, family. Thinking of you tonight.


"He has made everything beautiful in its time.
He has also set eternity in the human heart;
yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end"
-Ecclesiastes 3:11
