I've always said there is no way I'm moving out to Seneca... NO way on God's green earth am I going!! That is until God changes my heart... which he slowly has been. We have this great idea, this great community of friends, so what are we waiting for? Then I realized today that God never means anything for evil. God wants me to be happy and would not lead us in this direction just to see me sit by myself, in the middle of no where, and be angry and depressed. It comes down to a lack of faith on my part. I've just been so scared to go backwards.We've had some hard years in the past and my heart drops to think of going back there. We are very comfortable right now but I know that no one ever got anywhere by being comfortable. So I've decided to jump in! And no matter what happens it can always be changed.
Brian and his dad are meeting with a logger next week to discuss clearing some trees. We've already got some rabbits (that God had someone bless us with for free) to start breeding to sell/eat... and the fertilizer is great! One set of our friends is on board to do this with us. He also has lots of connections to get free chickens, and help to build houses (he has a construction background). It seems that God had set this ball rolling even before I had fully made a commitment... it's like he knew I would or something lol.
20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result, to preserve many people alive.
Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for well-being and not for trouble, to give you a future and a hope.
