I joked with David I would blog about his family. Here it is.
-----
The Comstocks. David, Tara, and little Julia, are a Red Tree Staff family. They blow me away. They sold all their stuff, and moved to StL to be part of this whole Red Tree church plant this past year. Ok, lets stop. They moved from Texas. That's a long haul, and some serious obedience to the Lord.
--
They feed me all the time. Taught me real community. Teach me about Jesus. Have some really hilarious parenting stories. Oh the list only goes on. They just want to see God's glory throughout the earth. It's beautiful.

Their apartment was infested with mold this past week, its a long story. (most people would FREAK and flee the country) ya, not the Comstocks. They just call themselves homeless now, and move in with some totally awesome Red Tree-ers.
---
The Comstocks, homeless, mold infested, confused, frustrated, and in the midst of it all say, Lord your ways are higher. [They have the trust and faith and I oh so want to learn and live. The faith of trusting in their Daddy to know that homeless, or the owners of huge mansion-they are satisfied by Christ alone.]

They remind me alot of Shane Claiborne.
