Relocation


This last week I have had a lot more time than usual to think about things, mainly my future. Since quitting my jobs and packing up my room full of the stuff of my life, More things have become a reality. Like I am moving away from the home that I have known for forever, to make a new life with my husband in 2 weeks. This is crazy. I am moving my ENTIRE life to be with the man I love. I am leaving everything I possibly know, to be with him. Don't get me wrong, I am excited, and I do want to be with Matt. But the thought that in such a short period of time, I will have an entire knew life. And sometimes I freak out. BUT!! I take comfort in my Sovereign Lord. After all, He is the one who put us together and has orchestrated our love story, surely He is not leaving me now. I am so thankful I can call upon Him at any time even when I am the loneliest of lonely (Is that possible?) when Matt's at work, and I am home alone, in a city where I know no one, with no car, and no friends. He is always there. I take comfort in His Word, where I always get truth and comfort from, and these are the verses that I have been going back to.

"My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.
Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, YOU ARE THERE; if I make my bed in hell, behold YOU ARE THERE. If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts if the sea, even there Your hand shall lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me. He found him in a desert land and in the wasteland, a howling wilderness; He encircled him, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of his eye. As an eagle stirs up its nest, hovers over its young, spreading out its wings,taking them up, carrying them on its wings, so the Lord alone led him. THE LORD IS THERE.
Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in. And He led them forth by the right way. In this place I will give peace, says the Lord of hosts. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."

Exodus 33:14, Psalm 139 :7-10, Deut. 32:10-12, Ezek. 48:35; 2 Chron. 1:10; Psalm 107:7, Hag. 2:9, Josh. 1:9.
