The Move...

"But you, O Lord, are a God of compassion and mercy, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness." [Psalm 86:15]

Today is the day! JW brought a team of movers with him this morning - and all I hear is footsteps back and forth from the house to the truck, wrapping paper securing items as they are placed in boxes, and grunts as they lift the boxes! Talk about a team operation...these guys are something to study for all you students of leadership and management! They have the upstairs completely packed/loaded on the truck...within an hour...and are now packing the rest of the main floor and heading here to the basement/office/family room soon! Afraid if I don't get out of the way I will be in a box and on the truck!

Please continue to pray for these guys and the move! They are such a blessing - as I am sure you can imagine! Also...please join me in praying for the final document/financial preparation for the closing on Friday. I ran into some "glitches" in the banking world with our credit union this morning - but God! Just another opportunity for God to demonstrate His Power, Glory and Majesty! [2 Corinthians 4:7-12] We get discouraged, perplexed, knocked down, and face death because we serve Jesus...but we are not crushed, not driven to despair, or destroyed because we who have also shared in His Death and Resurrection - sweetly broken and wholly surrendered before His Cross - as we have repented and confessed of our sin, asking for His forgiveness and inviting Him into our lives as Lord and Savior are Redeemed...and we are able to live victoriously because of His Death and Resurrection! [Romans 10]

A wise man shared with Kelly and I last night ... that the preparation for battle is the tough part, but the battle is what we live for...and don't forget the War has already been won! Christ conquered sin and death! PTL...(that's Praise the Lord ya'all!)

Love you all...and can't wait to see how God continues to move through today and the rest of the week!

All Eyes on Jesus!

[P.S. May not be able to update the blog until tomorrow - with the move and all...and not sure what time we will be arriving at the farm and where/when I will be able to get on to the internet! But, I promise an update as soon as possible! Peace...]
