A New Season of Growth

Over the summer R and I realized it was time for us to find a new church home. We had met so many fabulous people and made some awesome friends, but we just felt like the Lord was leading us to move on. This meant the arduous task of church hunting...one of my absolute least favorite experiences!!!

Just before Christmas we overslept one Sunday and so decided to attend a church in town that has a Noon service. The worship was incredible and really ministered to my heart. I found myself talking to the Lord about how much I wanted to give this church a try and asked him to speak to R if that was where He wanted us. No sooner were we out of the building when R said he thought we should go there!!!

I feel like this new place of worship is what my soul needed to revive my heart and renew my walk with the Lord! Over the years I've realized that the Lord puts us in places to work His purpose in us and that sometimes that means moving on in order to go deeper and experience more growth. This has been true of us in changing churches.

In addition, a friend of mine invited me to a women's Bible study. We're doing a Beth Moore study and it has been so GREAT! Every time I sit down to do the homework I feel like the Lord is speaking directly to me in what I need to hear at that moment!!! God is just so faithful! I feel like after being in the desert for literally years, I'm drinking from a cool spring of water and can't get enough of it!!! The Lord knew what we needed and led us to that place that's right for us in this season until such time as He moves us on.
