After all of the months of waiting and packing and praying, we finally have a destination. We found out today that Gary has been hired by a company in York, PA. He will start work on Dec. 6. So now I have less than two weeks to get us really packed and find a new house for us and make all the plans for a move to Pennsylvania.
I had a feeling that God was stressing Thanksgiving for more than one reason. Yes, He did want me to not be anxious and to make my requests with “thanksgiving”, but I believe He was also giving me a clue that we would find out about our new assignment around Thanksgiving – the day before, to be precise!
Our children had been praying, and they heard the Lord say “three weeks”. Yesterday that three week period ended.
So we have even more to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. A better job, a new place, our next assignment, excitement and hope for a better life.
Again I say “HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!”
"Oh that God would give every mother a vision of the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is placed in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; could she look into its soul to see its possibilities; could she be made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no other's hands the sacred and holy trust given to her." -JR Miller
Whoo Hoo!!! I mean Praise the Lord! I am so excited for you all! Let the fun packing begin! : ) I will be praying for you….and maybe I can catch up on some of your past blogs while you pack instead of write, write, write!!! 🙂 ♥
