Pivot Points

A couple of weeks ago our church hosted a Ladies Retreat and the theme was "Pivot Points" of life and talked about how God is working in our lives. It was a great weekend with great speakers from our congregation and good discussion time with other women. It was quite a fitting theme for where my life is right now. I am in the middle of a major pivot point for me and my family. While my husband is still looking for work we are relying on God more than ever to provide for us. Over the past week I have really seen some glimpses of how God is working in our life and providing opportunities for Mike to work in ministry again. We have to continue to be patient and wait for God to continue to work on these things for us and rely on Him to provide. It is scary and yet exciting to start to see what God might be doing. A few months ago we were not sure if a ministry job was something that we could see doing in the very near future. God has been able to heal our hearts and rekindle the passion for ministry and now it is something that is very desireable if God choses to open up the right doors. God can do so much in such a short amount of time. It is amazing and I pray that I am content with whatever the Lord provides for us.

You and your family are in our prayers. Glad the retreat topic touched you. It is amazing, in hindsight, how small events and decisions can lead to big life changes! May the Lord bless you!
