Well, the day has finally come. We have spent months praying and asking God for His guidance and wisdom. We've spent the past couple of months preparing our hearts and our home for a cross-country move. We've spent the last few weeks saying goodbyes - first to our church family in Macon, then to Greg's family in NC and mine in SC. And now...it's time. Time to pack the suitcases one final time. Print off the boarding passes. Say our final farewells. And step into this new adventure, this new chapter of ministry that God has called us to in Alaska.
Over the past months God has used His Word to encourage me in countless ways. But there is one verse that He has me going back to again and again.
Isaiah 41:10 - So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
There is much that is uncertain in our future. Many unknowns. But one thing I DO know - God is faithful to His Word and His promises, and because of that we have nothing to fear!
So...here we go!!!
Praying God's blessings upon you guys in this new ministry adventure. Can't wait to hear about everything!

1 ,........let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. 2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
ReplyDeletePraying for strength to run that race!!
