Our house was on the market for 3 months and it sold in November. We moved in December and during that time we had to decide what to take with us, what to sell, and what to give away. There were so many decisions to be made. One decision we needed to make was if I should bring my harp with me to Mexico. When we were deciding what to do, we were reminded of the story when the Israelites left Egypt. They only had a short time to get ready to leave and yet in the process Miriam decided to pack her tambourine. She knew God would deliver them and she wanted to be ready to PRAISE HIM! I was so moved by this story because for 20 years my harp has been my instrument of PRAISE. I KNOW HE will DELIVER us. I KNOW HE has called us to Mexico and I want to be ready to praise him on the harp.
I'm learning new things everyday on this journey of faith. I have to let go and trust God is in control. Letting go...it's a daily thing for me. It can be a painful process but I don't want to live a life that is stuck in the past. God has great things ahead for us...
Isaiah 43:18-19
Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up: do you not perceive it?
Duet. 31:6
Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.
