"To Blessed to be Stressed"

Our posts are getting fewer and far between, hopefully that will be remedied soon, as I will be home more often after Avery comes. Our lives have been a bit full lately with life and getting ready for a new addition to our family. We recently found out that the house we are living in is in the process of being sold (the reason for the title of this blog) and we will probably be moving out before Avery makes his debut. Suprisingly I am NOT stressed (seeing how I am 9 months pregnant) and am fully confident that the Lord is working ALL things for our good seeing as He knew this was coming and was not thrown off guard. Granted, we also had some idea this could happen when we moved into a house that was for sell, we just didn't think the timing would be so close to my due date (or we had hoped anyway). So we are praying that the Lord will open up a new door for us...and in a hurry. Zac and I so want to be in the perfect will of God that sometimes I think we struggle with making decisions because we are afraid we are going to miss Him. Do we rent again, do we buy, do we move to another city, or do we continue to wait patiently on the peace of God to guide us in His divine will? Moving is not a huge issue for us seeing how this will be the 4th (yikes) time we have moved since getting married and we are always blessed with wonderful help, it's just KNOWING where we are to move. HE is able to do exceedingly abundantly ABOVE all we could ask or think...thank goodness for His promises!!!

Afternoon Adventures

Oh, how I love the mountains! We couldn't live in a more beautiful place. I am so thankful to live in this area. Zac and I took an afternoon to enjoy a leisurely hike at Whiteside. I could stay up there for hours just soaking in the peace and quiet I experience when on the mountain top. It reminds me of the story of Elijah after he had run from Jezebel and he heard the still small voice of the Lord while on the mountain top. I always feel like I can hear the voice of the Lord more clearly when I am in the woods or on the mountain because there are not all the distractions of every day life. One of our dreams is to live on top of a mountain and God says in His word that He will give us the desires of our hearts!!!
