GOD IS GOOD!!!

Wow, how time flies. We are finding it hard to believe it has almost been a year since we left MS. We are all settling in after 8 months going on 9 of living in TX. The kids are doing great and love it here. Doug's job is going well, he is staying busy and traveling some. I have actually found a part time job. I start next week at a surgery center about 5 miles from the house. I will be working on Fridays at first and add to that as I want, depending on what works out with the kids and Dougs schedule. I am so blessed to find a job that doesnt keep me away from my family too much. We are also becoming more active in our church and the kids love going. We are in a BFG( Bible Fellowship Group, aka small group) and have met a lot of great people who love the Lord and want to serve him. If it weren't for us finding a church and having our friends Peycia, David and Gracie (they moved from Castlewoods at the same time we did to the same neighborhood here- GOD IS GOOD!!) we would probably be lost. God has a plan for us and we are trying to live by his command in following his plan for our lives, but it sometimes seems like an uphill battle with our old friends and family 400+ miles away. Please pray for us in this journey that God will give us the strength we need to live by his word and know that he has sent us here for a purpose. I truly feel God working in our family bringing us closer to him, and if we can continue to be faithful in this walk, our reward will be far greater than any sacrifices we feel we have made as well as our family and dear friends. Thank you all for being so supportive in this journey we are taking. We can't wait to see you all again soon.
