Things set in motion

Today we put a confirmation date in place to reserve a U~haul truck & trailer. The logistics of our move seem to be falling into place. We are going to go as a family taking the kids on this adventurous road trip. My Dad will accompany us along the journey to trade off driving with me. As we can tell, our departure date for scheduling the move will be on July the 24th.
As we begin to see people at church and at John's work we begin view events as "our last time" doing such and such.
John is reminiscent & sorrowful as he walks the halls at work contemplating the 13 years he has been there. After all it is the place where he has been both saved and unsaved. It was where he was first invited to church. It is a place where he too then went on to lead others to the Lord. It is the place where we first met each other (no I wasn't a former inmate). It is the place that has given him a sense of security and stability during the last decade of his life.
I drive around town reminiscent of what the Tri-cities used to look like when we moved here in 1985. What it will look like when we get the opportunity to come back and visit. As I was looking through some old photographs today God reminded me of the awesome things he did for our family when we moved here from California. He provided my dad with a good job, he provided us all with friends we could count on in a place where family was sparce & He just took care of all the details for us. As things begin to become more real and God's plan begins to unfold daily I am just so thankful that He has it all under control!
