This entry is for my family in New Jersey this week who are gathered to celebrate the marriage of our nephew. I pray that all the various family units are now safely in the homes of the Jersey girls. Boy I am sure going to miss all the fun, but I see now why the Lord didn't want me to commit to travel this week to NJ as I moved to AZ at the very time I would have had to go back east. Isn't it amazing how even before I knew we were making this lifestyle change that the Lord already had it under control. I so often forget that he knows everthing that I need to do and what is important for me to do here and now. Wow, that is just an awesome concept for me to grasp my hands around.
A verse that was very apparent to me especially during our journey down to AZ this past week is what I read in Philippins 4-7 . . . "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
So, although I will miss all the 'sister' time and family moments, know that you are all in my heart and I will be thinking of you all. I would ask that if someone could please mail me a group picture or some family pics of you all so that I can make a page in my album of the event!
Well, I better sign off for now. I am still trying to find some stuff that we have here at Mike's sisters house that I can't seem to locate. Hugs and kisses to you all and thanks for your prayers and support!
