We have been in California for just over three weeks now and we have spent the past weeks adjusting to the time difference, catching up with our families, and enjoying the warm weather. We are looking forward to spending the holidays with our families for the first time in 4 years!
Over these past few weeks, one of the predominate questions that is being asked to us is, “What is going on with you guys?” So here it is.
Throughout this year we have been seeking the Lord if it is His will for us to remain in Herborn or if He would be moving us on. In the month of June, we really believed that the Lord was directing us to “step into the water” and to start moving on from Herborn. We did not know where and when, but we knew that we needed to start to make the steps necessary to begin to prepare the church in Herborn and us as a family for whatever would be next. In the month of August, I, Joey went to the missions conference in Austria to really go seek the Lord as to what would be next for us as a family. During the time there, it was confirmed that the Lord was moving us on from Herborn and that He had a new work for us. As we continue to seek the Lord as to where, what, and when that is, He is answering with words like, “Trust, Be Still, Be Patient, Wait, Seek, Do not boast about tomorrow” etc. To sum it up, we are in a transition time where He is calling us to WAIT upon Him. We are not sure how long this time will be, but we are going to take it one day at a time. Something that the Lord is speaking to us is in regards to being fully surrendered to Him so that we might be willing to do whatever it is that He is preparing us to do (future) as well as to learn what lessons He has for us in this transition time (present).
At the present time we are living with our families, but in the near future I will be needing a job, a place to live, a car, etc. Since we left all of our possessions in storage in Germany, we will also need, well... pretty much everything. We are praying for the Lord to show us where He wants us to be planted and so this is where your help in the following areas is appreciated:
- Be praying for us in this time of waiting upon the Lord
- Continued financial support in this time of transition
- Please contact us if you may have any leads regarding a job, housing, car, etc.
