Changes...

Our lives have been very 'up in the air' these last few weeks. Many things have changed & the changes may continue.

My husband has been 'guest' pastoring at his home church. The church he grew up in & was baptised in. They are in need of a new pastor. My husband is filling in until they make their decision & it is possible they may decide on him. It has been his dream, since he was a small boy, to pastor this church. It is just amazing how the Lord works these things out.

The church is in a small logging town in northern California so we are spending our weekends down there right now. It is hard on eveybody, especially The Little Man, to have our routine so catty-wampus, but it has been really rewarding. The people are very nice & kind & seem to truly enjoy us being there. My husband has had very positive responses to his preaching so far.

My husbands family all live there or close by so we will have family if we do move. But it is hard to think of moving from here & leaving our church family. We have so many wonderful friends here, we will miss them greatly. And the not knowing part is driving me crazy. I am one who needs to have "a plan" & not being able to plan really stretches me. I hope everything is settled in time for me to plant a garden. I know that seems silly but it is a big deal to me. And everything costs so much in California! From real estate to taxes to car registration; we have major sticker shock! But for now, we are just playing the waiting game.

"But those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.  Isaiah 40:31
