Several posts back as Matt shared a bit of the struggles we have been facing, he asked for prayers for peace during our Holiday Season. Peaceful is not exactly how we would describe our Holiday Season, however, we feel peace growing and we appreciate your prayers and the experience of peace we sense that is coming along. There is always a price to pay for peace and though it hasn't been easy, hopefully after coming through all this alittle more, we will continue to say that the price(s) we have paid will have been worth it all. It brings peace to know that Matt has flown through the training process at his new job and has already made a sale! It brings peace to know that through his job he has been able to contact and touch base with so many that have touched our lives before. It brings peace to know that he is motivated and enjoying what he is doing each day and sees it as a gift from God and an opportunity to expand. It brings peace to be settling into a wonderful home and beginning to feel organized again. I won't go into all the things that still don't promote peace in our lives and that can/could counteract all the peace I mentioned above, we are just trying to focus on the "peaceful" things right now.

over the holidays we also moved my mom in with us...she now lives in the back of the house we are currently in. We are currently leasing the whole building and we moved to the front of the home and mom is in the 2.5 bedroom apt we were in previously. We continue to work on and define "boundaries for peace" :)

I will pray for peace. And know that God is working His plan.
The update is appreciated. No one really knows what others go through but we can just only imagine. I do pray for peace for you all and can only imagine exactly what peace you are desiring at this time. As I searched the different definitions of peace to help me understand what might be troubling you and your extraordinary family this is what I came up with: Peace is --- harmonious relations; freedom from disputes; the absence of mental stress or anxiety...may peace be with each of you. Give it all up to God. He is in control. :)
Good luck to Matt and his new career. May the close-knit living quarters work out nicely for your extra family member(s). God Bless.
anonymous, thank you very much for your concern and thoughtful response. The peace you defined here is exactly what we need, are looking for, praying for and trusting God to provide. Thank you for your encouragment!
What happened to your plans of doing missionary work over in the UK? Is your husband employed by the same AIG that has been in the news lately? I wish you only the best. I hope your 2009 is good to you and everything you hope it will be.
we are praying for you guys !
Hoping your new year affords you plenty of peace and stability.
