MOVING TIME

It's that time again for us! Moving day #.....who know's, I've lost count. Since the damage caused from the tree crash is now repaired and finished before the sell of our home, we must move back in. So, we are only taking the things we need to survive (which for us isn't much) and staying there hoping to make a sell, and fast! We will be in by the start of Feb. Needless to say, my posting on here will be few and far between until we once again are settled in our 12th home of the year (counting all the hotels we were in for a few weeks!) Through all the moving and not knowing where we would be staying night after night, we have learned to fully rely on GOD! Even when it looked so bad. We have experienced what some of you would consider financial chaos , uncertianty, doubt and fear through this storm and I would be lying if I said we weren't scared, because we were at times. But above all, it was taken away with an amazing peace only given by Jesus Christ. It was still not fun though! God knew every step of the way what was going to happen and in HIS time it was taken care of. Every need! Every fear was erased and doubt was gone. Our God is big and He is bigger than any storm we face! Miracles happen through Him, lives are changed and in the big scheme of things, WE DIDN'T HAVE IT SO BAD AFTER ALL.!! We are so thankful this madness happened to us. We learned so much, we grew so much in the Lord and ultimatly we were so blessed with practically a brand new home to sell. We pray for the home the Lord has waiting for us. We are so thankful to have the amazing family and friends that we have. We have a roof over our heads and food on our table, we are so loved by our creator and we just want to serve him. What more can we ask for? nothing. But what our family can ask, and what we want to ask is, who can we show God's love to today and everyday? I don't know if you have heard the challenge on air 1. The 365 challenge. If you haven't, basically it's a challenge to 365 days of kindness. What better way to show God's love! We are taking the challenge and we challenge you to do the same!
