Stretching and growing
July 13, 2008 – 11:04 amI am being stretched, and as I am stretched I am growing. Work is opening up new challenges and opportunities for me, and conversations with some people I have known for a while are getting more deep. I am humbled to be thought ready for these things that are brought upon me.
China’s new large aircraft program is continuing, and some people are coming to Shanghai for some presentations regarding this. I have been asked to support this, but other priorities may make this difficult. I am excited about the possibilities and hope that I can be involved in this. Challenges in dealing with various issues for ARJ21 are also stretching me, causing me to better understand and react to dealings with the customer.
Youth group has brought deeper conversations with a few of the students in the past several weeks. Wisdom and grace are my prayer requests as we work through their issues of growing up. I am grateful and humbled to be a part of their lives, and hope I can stay close enough to God to be a positive influence.
Shanghai is still hot and humid, but that’s no longer much news. Stepping out of heavily air conditioned buildings or vehicles causes glasses to fog, but this is normal life here and things press on. However, we all look forward to October when it will be pleasant to walk outside again. Such is the cycle of life, I guess.
