We're just a few days away from Thanksgiving and I want to take a few minutes to reflect on some of the ways God has blessed our family. We found out a little over a year ago that we would be moving. I couldn't imagine why God was taking us from a place we loved to move us to a town that is known for it's Italian food and the state penitentiary. I don't even like Italian food. Well, those of you that know me know that I can be a tad stubborn. I just was not excited about this move. I was making wonderful friends that I loved dearly, we were growing in our walk with Jesus Christ, we loved our church, Andrew was doing great in school. Why in the world were we supposed to move?
We have been here for almost a year and I have once again been shown that God's plan is ALWAYS perfect!! He has blessed us again with friends that I love. We are growing even closer to God, we love our church, both Andrew and Olivia are doing great in school, and the list goes on. I am so thankful!

Philippians 4:6-7
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Matthew 25:40-46
40 "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' 41 "Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.' 44 "They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?" 45 "He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' 46 "Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."
