God continues to lead in amazing ways

It has been a while since our last posting. It has been a year of heartbreak, pain, healing and growth. It has been amazing to see how the Lord brings all things into His will and allows things in order to change our paths for Him.

Most of you are aware of a change in our place of worship about a year ago. As you can guess, this was a very difficult decision for us as we loved and still love our brothers and sisters at our previous church. This situation, while difficult, has been a blessing as we have found just the right fit in our new church home.

God needed to change our course of direction and this was how He decided to do it. I can't say that it was easy but following Him does come with trials. Thankfully, He uses these times to refine us like gold in the fire.

He continues to lead, one day at a time. We are following in the same way, one day at a time. Some days seem discouraging as Craig's work has been light and his paychecks lighter. Other days it is easy to see exactly what He is doing as we have our calling affirmed by church leaders and friends. Some days, we just continue on; staying in His word, in prayer and seeking Him. None of these days are wasted as they all play a part in preparing us for what He has for us.

Our hearts continue to beat for the world, starting with our neighbors and reaching to wherever He guides. Our prayers are for those who have not heard. Our desires are to be used however He sees fit in order to bring souls to Him. And in all things, that the Lord would be glorified.

Please continue to pray for and with us that we would see where He leads and be obedient to what He shows us.
