On Purpose.

     The more we get settled in our new house and I get used to calling this place home, the more and more I am convinced that God put us here on purpose. It's not that it wasn't as plain as day that we were being called to uproot our lives and move, as doors continually swung wide open before our move. Somebody could have been practically autibally yelling "GO!" in my face, and I'm not certain I would have been as sure and confident as I am now. But being here, and feeling a sense of purpose and peace has made it clear to me that we are exactly where we are supposed to be right now.
     Over the past few weeks Rob and I have been abundantly blessed with answers to prayer after prayer. Amazing people have litearlly walked into our lives and we've felt like we are right where we are meant to be.
     Somebody once told me "If you aren't out of your comfort zone, you aren't growing." Oh how true that is. For some people that is stepping into a church, for some people that is taking a mission trip to another country, for some people that is placing their trust in God, and for me it was moving to a new place where I knew nobody, to a new school I wasn't used to teaching at and to a community I was certain was speckled with scary people and nothing for me. Oh how wrong I was.
    Although there are days I still brutally miss the comfort of home, the closeness of family and the ears and hugs of good friends, every single day brings me a feeling of purpose and reassurance that we are here on purpose.

 We took an amazing trip back to our old stomping grounds. It was so great to be back! Bozeman, we love youl

 We enjoyed some local talent in downtown Dickinson... Kat Perkins (you may remember her from The Voice)!

My first Medora Musical experience, at it sure was a great one. The Badlands are beautiful, I can't wait to explore more of them!

Keep your eyes out for the latest project I completed! I'm excited about it and excited to share it!

What a beautiful life.
