I don't think you have to move far away to grow spiritually, or leave the South. I think the battlefield can actually be even harder closer to home. But that's just my opinion. :)Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10108466149514530396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219926960049007.post-24034956370765984922011-04-04T08:28:50.325-04:002011-04-04T08:28:50.325-04:00Thanks y'all, its encouraging to know that i&#...Thanks y'all, its encouraging to know that i'm not the only one that struggles with this--i feel like such an Israelite, God teaching me the same lesson Again and Again, and how i so quickly forget all the good things he has done for me, even in what he Hasn't given me!Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16193589124708203445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219926960049007.post-21687477127976383492011-04-03T22:10:10.155-04:002011-04-03T22:10:10.155-04:00LOVE it!

Sometimes it's so hard to understand God's timing...but looking back on seasons I struggled through, since coming out on the other side, God worked things out so much better than I would've imagined! My most recent realization of this is God bringing us to Florida for what we thought would only be a couple of months. Now God's got me plugged into the Children and Youth ministry as a leader, and women's ministry at our church. I never would've expected that! I thought a job at bath and body works was what I wanted, and then God opened up a job that is my dream job! <br /><br />Praying for you to find contentment in His timing, as I pray for myself to do the same.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00977220750000378492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219926960049007.post-30448203243991824042011-04-03T16:02:03.155-04:002011-04-03T16:02:03.155-04:00God's pretty amazing like that!
Just two week...God's pretty amazing like that!<br /><br />Just two weeks ago, God called Cody into full-time ministry as well. We'll be heading to seminary soon, possibly in the fall.<br /><br />I, too, have seen a pattern from looking back over our prayer lives. No matter what we pray, or how He answers, I know He always has the very best in mind for us.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15843931547682988503noreply@blogger.com
