Moving on...
So...
Jeremy has been wondering and contemplating and thinking and imagining about the job that he applied for in Georgia. The man he talked to on the phone said that Jeremy was on the top of their list for people they'd want for that position. They told him he'd hear from them sometime after the first of the year, but we've got some big decisions to be made so Jeremy really wanted to know if someone had been selected, and if they were going to notify everyone or not. The man could not tell Jeremy who got picked for the job, but he did say that whoever was chosen for the job would receive a call next week, everyone else would not be notified. When they went to hang up the phone the man said to expect a call from them next week, so basically they couldn't tell him he had the job, but he will be offered the job. That means that we are moving to Georgia! There's been alot of things transpiring at Jeremy's job lately, alot of office politics and it's kinda just pointing us in the direction of leaving. I am excited about what's to come, yet sad to leave. We really wanted something to open up for us here, but it is not. I will miss my family most definitely. I will miss my church family. There are so many people that I've known my whole life in that church, it's more like leaving a bunch of family than just friends. We're waiting till next week for them to call, then we will start finding out what we need to get done. It looks like they will pay for our moving expenses, and even buy our house from us if we can't sell it. That will be something that Jeremy needs to find out from them. There's alot that needs to be done in a month or so before we would leave. We are not announcing this to anyone until we know for certain what's going on, so please just pray with me about it, and if you know any of my friends please don't say anything just yet.
I have really been contemplating my Christian life lately, I feel like I just live my life, I think about God, I talk to him, but I'm not really doing anything of lasting value right now. We waste so much time on unimportant things, don't we? To be honest I really need to be shaken up a little, and I feel like maybe that's where I'm headed. I don't want to live my life for myself, I'm not o.k. with conformity or mediocrity, I want something more. Those are the thoughts running through my head lately. Just pray for me. Leaving will not be easy, but I want to be in God's will, because that's the only place I can truly be happy. We have major life changing decisions to make, please pray we will make the right ones.
I love you all and thank you for always being there to listen even when my mind is running in a thousand directions.
