It’s been three months since my move and so much has taken place!
Here are the highlights.
New Apartment – No joke about it, I received the keys to my new apartment on April 1st. My son Jamie was a big blessing with the drive down, being the heavy-lifter with the unpacking, and putting air-conditioners in the windows. Yes, you need them in Florida. I love it!
New Ministry – It’s a perfect fit! I love heading to the office each day. For some of you, a day spent writing and editing might sound, well, tedious. Not so for me.
New Church – Finding a new church can be a daunting task. You feel like such a newbie — and you know you can’t replace your old church family. Several months in, I’m still a newbie, but feeling like I’m starting to belong.
New Homeowner – When I started looking for a house, I figured it would take a while. God had other plans. First night out I saw it. Less than a month later, I was the somewhat surprised owner of my new home. (It is rented out for roughly six months. God was in that as well.)
New Empty-Nester – Yes, I’m a new empty-nester as well. Don’t tell my kids—though they may be reading this—but Matt and I thought the empty-nester stage could be a lot of fun! So, it’s kind of anti-climatic to be doing it alone, but it’s another opportunity for God to make His grace and strength so real to me. And He is. I really am just enjoying life. And that’s because of Him.
