It has been such a beautiful journey of ups and downs. Our faith has been tested to say the least! Our faith is being strengthened. We have had to put up our shield of faith and know that it will be exactly as God said it will be. We are still going through the storm, but God is still protecting us.
We are listening to his guidance, he is requesting us to take a step sideways, I have felt like he has been preparing us for this, for months. I wanted to jump when I first felt like this but, Josh has faithfully said we need to wait on the Lord and for is guidance. So by waiting I feel like we are doing exactly what he was asking. Getting to this point was hard and painful, and we didn't just get an email from God with the plan, that would be nice though, instead we got his words in the form of scripture. It amazes me how many times I can read a verse and how many times the same verse changes to guide me in this journey.
Romans 4:18
18 Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.”[a]
Judges 6:12
12 When the angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon, he said, “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior. ”
Matthew 18:19-20
19 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
I am excited for this step, it is still scary but I feel good, I feel like this is pleasing to God!
Thank you Lord for loving us! Your love is amazing and gracious. We need you always! May this next chapter be your will God, let this be your story through us. To you be the Glory Savior!
