“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
Jeremiah 29:11
One of my favorite verses in the Bible is this verse. It has helped me time after time in life when I am wondering what IS God’s plan.
As we get ready to travel again to a new place, a new adventure, I’m so grateful for the steps HE has directed us to take.
Memories and friends made here, more to come. Every church we’ve been in, every house we’ve made home, each city we have passed through even for a time – memories.
God has blessed us over the past 32 years in dramatic ways! I can’t say anything else but to give thanks to God for each of you that I have met along the way and for the future adventures yet to come!
It isn’t easy (EVER) saying our “goodbyes” to our friends we have served with for God’s glory but I have to be grateful daily for the technology we have today to be able to keep up with you all even when far away.
There’s a light above,
There are smiles of love,
When in Jesus we abide;
There are golden rays
Cheering rugged ways;
Let us keep on the sunny side.
Tho’ the raindrops fall
In the hearts of all,
In our Father we confide;
There are heav’nly gleams,
And sweet promise beams,
When we keep on the sunny side.
Let us trust the Lord,
Trust His gracious word,
That no good will be denied;
With a faith in Him
That no shadows dim,
Let us keep on the sunny side.
Walking along in the sunshine fair,
Helping a neighbor to travel there;
When our souls are bright
With salvation’s light,
We will keep on the sunny side.
So here’s to new adventures and new travels (and I’ll be back soon!).
