With fear and trembling we signed on the dotted line as we handed over our life savings for a down payment on our new home. Whew! With that finalized, we begin the process of moving into our new home. Throughout the week we had moved some of the more delicate things and Saturday, as I waited for the rests of the movers to come, I randomly turned on the itunes on my computer. The first song that came up was a song from Children's Bible Hour. It went like this:
This is no time for fear
This is a time for faith
And determination
Don't loose the vision here
Carried away by emotions
Hold on to all that you hold in your heart
There is one thing that has always been true
It holds the World Together
God is In Control
We believe that his children will not be forsaken
God is In Control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him
We know OH OH OH
God is In Control OH OH OH
God is In Control
God is so gracious, isn't He? Just when we were making our move final, He reminded us that HE IS IN CONTROL. One year ago, I would never have dreamed this scenario. But as the 25+ worker bees began loading and unloading our stuff, we realized we have a new family now; people who love and cherish us and value our input into their lives.
For those God entrusted to us in the past and for those He has entrusted to us in the present & future . . .
We give thanks to God always for all of you, constantly mentioning you in our prayers, remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. (I Thessalonians 1:2-3)
