Sunday was a day of farewells. They are never easy for in every chapter the Lord has brought precious people into our life with whom we wish to never part. But alas God's plan is always best and today we start chapter four.
This past summer we have tried to visit each of our kids. The first part of July we were with Brad and Melissa and the kids. What fun! As usual Brad had a project for Rich but this time he was on vacation so together they were able to get a lot done with time for fun too.
The kids had fun too. Riley and Naomi thought it great fun to sleep in our room and when we told them we had to leave Naomi. Said "but I will be lonely." I m looking forward to being close enough to making that loneliness disappear.
The end of July was spent in NC with Jason Sara and Maggie. Once again Rich and Jason spent time on projects and of course we still had time for ice cream. Maggie knows every landmark and made sure we got to the ice cream store.
Now as we begin our first leg of our new life we are headed up to Halifax. Papa plans to build a tree house for the boys and I'm sure Breannea will want in on the action.
Now at the end of these last few month of indecision we are finally at peace with God's plan for our future. It's like a burden has been lifted and we are ready to fly ahead. Today we are praising the Lord for his goodness and for his continual care.
Where ever you are in your life's journey I trust you will revel on His goodness as well. I know that that is easier said than done and I struggle as much as anyone with that concept but the truth is we need to be like a palm tree. We bend with the wind but our roots are strong and when the storm clears we spring right back.
Let's continue down the path God has chosen praying for each other as we stand rooted and grounded in HIM!
