Thank you's all around

A couple of months ago I posted about some of the struggles Paul and I were facing in our lives - and so many of you reached out to us offering wonderful words of encouragement and thoughtful prayers. You will never know the extent to which you touched our hearts. We are truly blessed by our family and friends. Thank you.

As an update...

God is ALIVE and working in ways that we can now see, but also in ways we may never know. He is a powerful God who loves His children and "in all things God works for the good of those who love Him" (Rom. 8:28).

Since that post, we have moved back to Greenville, I got a job teaching as a Kindergarten Assistant in a wonderful little country school, Paul has gotten a job offer at a private dental practice in Boiling Springs and is finalizing paper work, and we are in the process of buying a house! I cannot begin to express my excitement and joy as we start this new chapter in our lives. My heart is happy.

It has not been a an easy journey to get here, but in all honesty I would not trade it for anything. These past few months have taught us more than we could have ever imagined. We have had to learn the true meaning of resting and waiting in the Lord. We have learned how to pray with a true purpose. We have learned how to be humble and grateful. We have learned that God really does have a perfect Will and a perfect Plan, and when we wait for it, it's life's richest blessings.

We are still waiting on that the one final piece of our puzzle - a baby. But, again, we know that God already has a picture of our family on His mantel, and someday our wait will be over. And on that day, as with the past few days and weeks, I will loudly and assuredly proclaim, What an AWESOME God we serve! Glory be to God.

Thank you again for all your well wished and your prayers.

God Bless
