New Journey

So this past weekend, our family started a new journey!  It's scary yet exciting at the same time.  We are looking for a new church home.  After many months or even years we have finally decided it is time for us to move on.

So many fears come with this new journey.  It's going to be like changing schools again like I was younger and you have to start all over meeting new friends.  You have to learn to gain trust in people who will be watching your kids.  You have to, most of all, trust in God completely to lead you to where he wants you. 

I go online and search for different church websites to get information on them and I just don't know what I'm looking for.  I know I want at church that is apart of the community and I want a church that has a future for my kids.  This is like buying a new house.  You have your things that you def want and all the other things can change. 

How long is this gonna take?  Are we gonna be wandering for years like they did in Egypt?  hehe that was just a joke by the way.  Anyway, seriously, how long do you keep searching?  How do you know when you find the right place?  Will I feel it in my heart right away or do I need to go to each church a few times to know?  ugh, sooo many questions.

Well wish us luck on this new journey.  I know it will grow us and teach us things and will most likely be exciting!

  1. I feel like you can tell a church just by looking it up online. I encourage you to try new churches. one each sunday and just i guess 'shop' around until you go to one and God is like "this is it... this is where i want you"
    i know you guys will find a great church with a community setting that will support you and bring you closer to your walk with God

  2. I'll definitely be praying that God makes it very clear for you guys where he wants you to be! I sure hope it doesn't take as long as the Israelites spent wandering in the desert (40yrs is a long time)!
