BE STILL AND KNOW

I have prayed a thousand times BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD.. I wanted God to show me how to be in his presence and feel him. I just didn't know that he would bring me to this place to do it. As I am trying to adjust to our new life here I can clearly see God's hand all over this move. He has answered my prayer I am still and now I need to lean in and know my God is here, he is walking with me. I see that God has taken everything that I knew and loved about SD and brought me here and this is were he will teach me to be still. Now my daughter it's my time dig in I will not let you fall. I can truly say that as I have said to my Father where are you... he is right here. I was comfortable in SD I surround my self with people with like values and beliefs. That is not the case here my husband 's job is now our life. We live with all those he works with most don't go to church have very different values than I do. So what to do? God I pray where are you. I get nothing and yet I know he is here. I have nothing but quite time. Yesterday I prayed again please Lord I need your touch and he didn't disappoint, he was wanting for me at church. I will continue to lean in to him and pray that he will continue to hold me. When God stretches us it never feels the way we want it to.

I'm Alive

It has been awhile but I am alive. Thank you for all the calls and emails checking in on me it has meant so much to me. We are finally all unpacked. I am getting lost all the time just trying to find things. We have not found a church yet but we are searching. I have found the book Steams in the Desert to be a great comfort right now. I have been reading it off and on for a few years. It amazes me how God use his words to speak to me know matter where I am. When Heather was gone I had many days praying for her, some great words of encouragement came from this book. One day it said that if God left me where I was he would never be able to use me for his glory. I am not sure what that will be but I am daily looking for it. I have not been able to plug in with any ladies up here yet but I am sure that will come soon. We have had some changes in our adoption adventure I will update that blog tonight so you can read about it. My children have had a bit of a rough transition I am daily praying for some Godly girls to surround them. I miss all of your faces.
