God's Goodness So Far

 For the last 6 months our family has been fervently praying for the opportunity to relocate to our home town. Late this summer we began making conscious efforts to turn the dream of moving home into a reality.   You see, we've moved many, many times since we've been married, but no town has truly felt like home.  Thankfully, we have met many wonderful people along the way that have helped to lessen the void of family in our lives.  For that, we are truly grateful.

Just this past week, Nate was offered a job back in Iron Mountain, Michigan.  And, we accepted it.  Once, again, we'll be packing and sorting and busying ourselves with a move.  Only, this time, we're going home.

There have been few precious moments in my life when I felt God had truly answered a prayer with a "Yes."  We feel joy and euphoria.  Each morning, I have to remind myself that this is no longer our dream, but a reality.

Thank you, Lord, for having mercy on us, to grant us our request.  Truly, we are not worthy.

p.s. Months ago, I made a bargin with a certain Saint that he would have a treasured place in our new home, if he would petition Our Lord with our request.  I can't wait to build that place of honor for him in our new home!
