Dependence

Well, God is teaching me a lot about dependence on Him. This past week God has brought 2 challenges into my life. They both have positive spins to them, but also require faith & dependence.

First of all Greg and I have decided that we are going to have a 20 year old guy live with us for 6 months starting in June. He is from one of our sister churches in Colorado and will be in Orlando going throughout the BMW STEP Program. We feel confident in God's leading about this, but also realize that there will be sacrifices. However, one of our goals with moving to Orlando and this last summer purchasing a home is to allow our home to be a home to whoever needs one. A safe haven for people to grow in their walks with God. So, the adventure will begin the middle of June. I am sure once we get to know our new housemate photos will appear on the blog.

Also, yesterday I found out that my boss is going to move on to another job. He has been involved with GCM for 15 years, and has in the past 6 months played a key role in challenging me to face my fears. While I realize God has a plan, there is sadness and many things to process.

Thus again God brings me back to depending on Him. I believe this will be a life long lesson for us all, but I hope as I grow that it will become more natural.

I love Orlando, but I am still looking for my secret get-away "God Spot"
in Orlando - I think this is the first place I have lived that I have not had one - however I know God will reveal this just when I need it most.

P.S. My parents are hopefully coming to visit the 2nd week of April - hopefully all you locals will have a opportunity to meet them:)
