Lessons from Little ones.

 

This verse was Levi's VBS memory verse this week.  Little did I know the LORD would use him to minister to me.
As we continue to wait to see if the Lord is going to send us to Australia, this morning I confessed to my family that I was scared. Levi's little ears tuned into Chris and I discussing this.  God brought to his mind his memory verse and he was able to apply it to my situation.  He even realized that it didn't mean you would never be scared; stating that he still gets scared at night, but that God would be there with you.
So this convicted me and encouraged me to memorize
Hebrews 13:5-6

5 Your life should be free from the love of money. Be satisfied with what you have, for He Himself has said, I will never leave you or forsake you. 6 Therefore, we may boldly say:

The Lord is my helper;
I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

Eastern Horizon or Western Limits!

Psalm 139:9-10

9."If I live at the eastern horizon or settle at the western limits, 10. even there Your hand will lead me; Your right hand will hold on to me." 

I've held on to vs 10 as my life verse remembering that where ever I am, or whatever situation I may find myself in He will be right there holding my hand.  How often I forget that and let worry take over.  

Australia (City on a Hill) is still the only job offer on the table and they let Chris know this week that he is their #1 choice for the job.  They are in the process of discussing salary and benefits details.  The next steps will be for Chris to go to the Au. Embassy to find out more about what our Visas require for our medical coverage down there.  Then they will fly Chris out there for a week to get to know him face to face. 

To be honest, part of me would feel relieved if we found out we were going to Au. Its a big deal to move your family to another country.  There are so many unknowns.   Chris and I have talked a lot about this and maybe we are so apprehensive because its such a huge leap of faith.  But isn't that exactly what God wants from His children, to walk in faith trusting HIM to take care of our every need.  

Continue to pray for us as we take the next steps in this journey to the Eastern Horizon or Western Limits!

In the meantime, the boys and I were able to take a long vacation to visit family incase we do move somewhere where its not as easy to visit.  

We headed up to Ky to visit family and friends there.  oh how nice it was to see them all.  Why did I wait so long. <3

My Uncle, Aunt and cousins!! 

Then it was off to Florida to spend some time with my parents and family and friends down there.  It was so nice to get away for a while.  

Here we are, minus Lucas :(, in St. Augustine getting ready to take Levi on a pirate ship.  

Until next time...

Love,
