Beauty in the Clouds

I’ve come full circle. Now I’m home again, with bags to unpack and clothes to wash, new time to get used to, and errands to run. I have to go to the Post Office to get all my saved-up mail, I have to refill my medications, I need a hair-cut, I have to buy food. All of this I hope to do tomorrow, as in Monday, because after that we are getting a winter blast!

For now, let me  show you some of the beauty I enjoyed in the clouds, or should I say from above the clouds. I had window seats so I could take these pictures. And the weather was perfect!

From Berlin to Chicago

Waters above and below

Chicago is situated by one of the Great Lakes, the one that is totally within the borders of the United States. When I first saw Lake Michigan from above, I mistook it to be the ocean, then I remembered it was a lake. What a beautiful sight!

It was amazing to look out over this big city. I remember hearing years ago that more people live in Chicago than in all Sweden. This is the city where my brother Pepe started his “American” life. That’s where he found his bride, my very favorite sister-in-law.

More Next Year

Lord willing, next year there will be another story from Sweden. We hope Dad will be with us so we can celebrate his 95 years. That’s the plan. I pray God’s blessing over our planning!

My name is Kerstin Anderas-Lundquist. I was born in Sweden to Per & Brita Anderas, on March 6, 1946. In 1948 we left to begin a missionary life in Chile; in 1956 we moved on to Peru. On May 1, 1969 I married an all-Swedish guy from Karslkrona: Bengt Göran Emanuel Lundquist. God blessed us with two daughters: Eva-Marie Elizabeth and Ruth Carina. We served as missionaries in Peru and Bolivia. In 1988 we moved to the United States to work at Life Publishers in Miami, Florida. I was to assist in developing the line of Sunday School Curriculum in Spanish known as Vida Nueva. I am now retired and live in Oklahoma. My husband and daughter Eva-Marie have been promoted to Heaven. Carina and her family live some 15 minutes away. I publish Bible lessons and stories for children in Spanish, for free download. My deepest desire is to spread the “seed of love”–inspiration to serve God and our neighbors with love and compassion. You can find English stories at MX1414.wordpress.com.
