On The Road Again...

Yep, here we go again...headed back to our home town area...The Rogue Valley. Through a small family crisis, we realized that we need to be close to family and friends and plugged back into some great churches back at home. This year has been tough financially, because our income relys on tourism and that just isn't happening...even in Orlando. Our hotel told us that the numbers are looking even more severe this year for at least 9mo., they even asked us to go on a month vacation if we could- ha,ha,ha,as if we have that kind of money. So, Ben and I had every intention of finding a cheaper home(which almost became impossible); try to find different jobs(which was impossible- hiring freezes and businesses shutting down); Ben was going to start a coffee business(he's gonna wait on that idea, due to the economy and our finances being week, but its still a dream)and try and try and pray and pray. Then, through a little family crisis (won't go into, silly stuff) we realized we need to be close to those we love, our kiddos need to be close to grandparents and cousins right now also. And we haven't been involved in ministry lately to keep us here...we haven't even been in church for a few months(all the good ones are at least an hour away-'bible believing' churches are hard to find here) and we just haven't been able to take the steps to start a church (and thats the reason we moved here in the first place). So, with all that we feel in our hearts, that its just time. No promises that we wont, in the far, far future end up back in Florida, because we do love it and warm weather. The kids are very very very excited to go back (Emiliah keeps asking if we can bring back the palm trees though). And I will continue on my dream of becoming a nurse...actually the programs available in the valley are far better than what is available here. By the way, I am really excited, I ended another term with A's again. And the more I learn the more interested I get...I loved my Anatomy and Physiology class. So, I am writing this at last moment, we will be home the first week of September and we cant wait to see everyone there. Please pray for us, there is a lot of stress that goes into moving, finding jobs, finding a home. I have a saying written on a piece of paper hanging up on my front door... "But God..." When I am stressed and saying, "What are we supposed to do, Am I doing the right thing, How is this going to work, I just dont know???" I look at my saying to remind myself, that true I dont know, but God knows. True this doesn't look like its going to work out, but God is going to work it out, in His way. But God is going to meet us in His perfect way and I know we will be blown away with amazement at His handywork. But God...will fulfill His promises to us. But God...will tend to my children and protect them and guide their paths also. But God will continue to lead and guide me as I seek Him. But God...
