Be Still and know...

It was difficult to leave the life we grew to love in Virginia (minus the commuting!), but it was easy to come back to Erie.

I'm a fidgety, impatient person, most of the time. In VA I always wondered what was going to happen with Mike's company, and if and when we would have to leave. Looking back, I realize I should have just enjoyed being there, and let everything else take care of itself. Mike's company issues were going to, and did happen whether I thought about them every day or not. Be Still and know!

Since we've been home, finding a job has been a challenge for Mike. In this economic climate, and in this area where jobs are not abundant, I should not be surprised. Yet I think about it every day, and wonder what we should do and what are next move should be. But I am learning to be more patient, "For I have a plan for you, declares the Lord..." and I need to pray and leave it up to God. Be Still and know!

Last night, Jen Kerr sang the song that's been on my mind for the past two week. Be Still, and know!!!!

God is telling me all the time to chill out... I am definitely trying my best to listen!

He has amazing things in store for you! But I am hoping, selfishly, that you two stay around!
