Have you ever ventured into something unknown but you knew that God is in it? You know he is doing something even if you don't know what at the time. Or maybe you know what is ahead, but you just aren't sure what the whole picture of it will turn out to be.
It has been that way for us these last couple of months. The reasons I have not been here every day is what I am about to share with you today.
And why this will be my last post for a few more days.
The reason is that we are moving out of state to be closer to our two adult children. We have lived in our home state all our lives and they have been trying to get us to do this so that they can be around if and when we need their help, since we are getting older. So as much as we love our own state, we look forward to this move.
There is a mixture of sadness in leaving, but also a sense of joy for what is ahead. We know to some degree what is ahead, , but a little bit of unsurety of it as well, as we are not only approaching it, but approaching in our ages as well.
It will be a new chapter in our lives. A friend called it a " new journey with the Lord." And it is. Because I do know that while we are not sure of all that is ahead in our lives, he is making our crooked paths straight as we look to him for guidance.
This decision to undertake this really began about three years ago or so. All of that time, we knew it was coming. We just did not know how or when it would. Not until a few weeks ago. God has revealed it a little at time, working on our behalf to straighten it out for us, up until this very moment, every step of the way. And it won't stop until we are settled there. If, even then.
Once we get there, we will be living very close to our daughter, and I will use her Internet for awhile until we get it again. And God willing, it should only be a short time, that I will be here once again to post on this blog.
Until then, I do hope you will pray for us. It is a big undertaking for us and we need any prayers for us to go up to the Lord for this move to go as smoothly as possible.
Thanks to all of you that support this blog by your visits every day. May God richly bless you. I look forward to the time I get back here to post on this blog again, Until then, take care.
