Change

I can not begin to tell you how excited I am of the changes that are about to happen in my world. This past weekend was spent up in Louisiana in view of a call at the church. The weekend was jammed packed of meetings, interviews, question & answer times, sharing testimonies, meeting youth, meeting parents, meeting the church! Talk about anticipation - waiting till last night to hear how the church vote went was nerve wracking :) God is so good in complete clarity and His will for this move because the vote was unanimous to bring Rick on as Youth Pastor :) Ahh I definitely did a happy dance when I heard the news! Now the plan is to move up there by September 1st. Thankfully we have temporary housing until we find a rental house or find one to buy.

Here I am up early with my mind going w/ packing on the brain. Tons to do!

God is so good. I know I got impatient waiting, and frustrated about the unknowns of taking a step of faith and of obedience. Louisiana's very different, but I am so excited to see how God will use us out of our comfort zones, and how He will use us to further His kingdom.

Psalm 115:1 "Not to us, Oh LORD, not to us, but to Your name give glory, because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your truth."
