T...My family moved often through our growing years. There were good reason for moving that Mom and Dad always shared with us. Moving always meant "thinning things out," so I have few material things like toys and clothes from when I was a child. I do have lots of memories and they are mostly good memories.<br /><br />Moves can be challenging. My mom once apologized for moving after we kids left home--like we didn't have home to come home to. I said, "Mom, you don't have to worry about that, because you always take 'home' with you.'"<br /><br />As a married couple, Hank and I have made our share of moves. It always seems to work out. In light of all these moves, I am happy to have a faith and the promise of an eternal home prepared for us. Maybe that means our one eternal home will always suit us. For now, we are fortunate to have the Comforter that Jesus promised he would send to us when he went home to his heavenly Father and his heavenly home. <br /><br />Thanks for stirring up these comforting thought, Vicki. Looking over Lake sounds lovely. Besides, You could make a home out of a box--what a compliment.

I like what you said about looking back and seeing God at work in your life - how sometimes it's too painful in the present to see much sense in His plan, but later we can look back and see the good in it. I have found that to be true as well. And just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Yes, some days are like that. Your honesty comes through.
