Long Trip...

Tomorrow, our long trip to Anniston begins. We are very excited for this adventure in which God is our pilot. As we share our last few hours with friends, family, church family; I am constantly thinking about all the memories from this place over the last 4 years. It has been full of many ups and downs that have grown and matured us in several ways. I think about the work we are about to begin and how God has been building and preparing us for this very moment. Today, a good friend brought me a blanket... it is a blanket made out of my father's shirts; I cried with the joy to have this gift before we leave. It is interesting to be closing one chapter and waiting as God is opening and leading us down a whole new chapter. We do not know what is in front of us. We do not know what challenges or areas of growth that God will be working on but we submit to Him and His powerful hand to move us where He knows we need to be.

Please pray for us we make this transition to AL starting tomorrow. Please pray for the areas that are threatened with flooding that we will be driving through to keep us safe.

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
