...Will you come with me......

It is sticky and hot outside... 2 lunches made, Kids sent off to work, doggies taken care of...and now... some new place in my life is calling for me...it fills me with joy but also apprehension and insecurity..
Looking back I can see the desert I have been walking through for so long, never alone, but still,  dry, barren and lacking.... looking ahead I see... my Father holding out His hand encouraging me to come along with Him... and this is when I know for sure that this is true:
Yet this I call to mind 
       and therefore I have hope:
Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, 
       for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning; 
       great is your faithfulness.
 I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; 
       therefore I will wait for him."
 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, 
       to the one who seeks him;
 it is good to wait quietly 
       for the salvation of the LORD.
Thank you Lord for reminding me....
