Gosh, sorry I haven’t written since the big news. I meant to, but time has sort of escaped me.
How have I been doing???
Well, I have been a tad overwhelmed.
The logistics of moving to California are far more complicated than I imagined. Figuring out where to live and how to get my self, my belongings and my car from Nashville to Orange County has been pretty much all consuming. Not to mention the plotting of a lot difficult goodbyes.
And, for the better part of last week I was gripped with fear.
Can I really do this? What was I thinking? Moving to Southern California…the land of earthquakes and Real Housewives? Who am I? Without Nashville, my friends, my church, and my dog? {Yeah, I came to the brutal decision to send Molly to reside in Texas with my parents than force her to accompany me as I get settled. Brutal.}
But…things are looking up.
I am feeling more cool, calm, and collected as the plan begins coming together. And I know this sounds corny and perhaps a little hyper-spiritual but Sunday as I sat in church I couldn’t miss the little confirmations, the gifts of reassurance, from God that this is the right move. And that I am not taking this leap alone.
From the gripping lyrics of Healer, “Nothing is impossible with You. You hold my world in Your hands.” To Pete Wilson’s poignant message about what being radically devoted to Christ looks like. To watching the waves crash on a rocky beach as Merlyn Catron sang, “Where you go, I’ll go. Where you stay, I’ll stay. When you move, I’ll move. I will follow you.” To the perfectly timed text message from Tyler Merrick nudging the Project 7 team to, “Look for His details in the tapestry of your life today and this week.”
He won’t let me endeavor to think I am taking this leap alone.
Praise. The. Lord.
Enough about me. Has He sent you any gifts of reassurance lately?
