Won't You Guide Us? ....Update.


Star of Wonder, Star of Light,
Star of Royal Beauty Bright,
Guide us, Guide us,
Won't you Guide us? - Sara Groves

This is our prayer lately, as we are SO unsure of what our future brings. We had a plan. That was to get off this island as soon as possible. Recently we figured we can only do that by moving with debt and moving to a place that is not our number one destination. Soo as my Dad said "It sounds like your light bulb just went on!" hah. Yes, there is a new plan. It is to not settle. We are staying in Maui until May to get debt free as well as have enough money to move. In February we are taking a trip to California. It will be to check it out and see if we like it and if we are able to find what we want there. As we decide that we do or don't like this number one destination we will move May first to either California or Colorado if CA doesn't pan out, because we know they have what we want already - minus the ocean. So this is what you all have been waiting for...an answer I'm sure none of you like. An answer that isn't even a solid answer. This is Chris' and my adventure. We are doing what is best for us and our family. That may sound super selfish and maybe it is but we still are in contact with our dearest and yet we are doing what we want to do as husband and wife. We would both highly appreciate prayer if you think of it. Prayer for clarity in a location. Prayer for the finances to flood in through shoots or what have you. Prayer that we continue to want what God wants for us. We have steered away from things just due to the fact we felt they wern't right...taking them as signs from the Lord. It's hard, not knowing. It's hard knowing we have to go into a new year in this place. Please just pray for happy hearts. We need them. Here it is easy for us not to be happy, even though no outsider can fathom that being so in "paradise".  We thank you for all the prayers and the support. Love you all - I will still be visiting in November as my Best Friend Sarah had her baby - thats what the trip was for in the first place. Chris and I in February might be stopping in Bellingham so he can see his people before our cali road trip. Well for now? This is our plan, But who knows what God thinks about that :) Love and hugs and kisses!
