The Exit...

Look where Autumn drove us!! HAHA Ok ok, rather look where the Lord drove us!! After many many tears and prayers, we are on the horizon of a new beginning. This week we will finally begin our plan to move forward financially. It is OUR turn to pull off the monotonous, broken highway of debt and onto a calmer, more scenic side road ordained by the Lord :) No more credit card debt!! PRAISE GOD!! Almost two years now away from the dearest friends known to man and a church that blessed us far beyond words...I cannot believe it has been so long!! The road has been wobbly but the Lord has remained steadfast. He has shown us grace and favor in more ways than I thought imaginable. Mini blessings here and there have helped to keep us pressing forward. So undeserved, but our God loves us THAT much. We trust in the Lord for continued strength to begin to build life HERE in THIS place. I am just so thankful for the release of this particular burden. Of course, there are still obstacles to overcome but this is a great first step. Thank you again to anyone who took the time to pray for my family. The Lord is so faithful. In times when it seemed our highway of financial trial would never find the much anticipated "exit", we were consistently reminded to look UP. Our GPS may have malfunctioned but my God's was right on track. "Do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise..." 2 Peter 3:8-9

And thank you to Brian for being the dedicated, hard working, God fearing husband and father that you are. You continue to lead us, although far from perfectly, into the paths set forth by a good and gracious God. No one can ask for perfection, simply a heart that strives after becoming more like Christ each and every day. We love you!!
