We have been here in Colorado for two months now, and can honestly say that we have endlessly seen God's grace daily.
We were recently talking with our new pastor (he and his family relocated from South Carolina) and asked how their transition was. He stated that although they're far from family, and the weather isn't always the most desirable, they came alive when they were where God wanted them... And let's all give a great big "amen", because yes, yes and yes. This is exactly how I feel here in Castle Rock. My heart misses my friends and family back home, but Kris and I were just saying the other night how we've never felt more at home someplace so quickly. That's just one of the ways that our merciful God has overwhelmed us with His goodness over the past two months.
Our new neighbors are amazing, and our Keegan has been so lonely for friends since we moved... And now we live next door to two of the kindest and friendliest little girls we could hope for. Keegan endlessly talks about his new neighbor friends, and it's made the transition so much better for my sweet big boy.
Also, I've never experienced such a friendly church as Front Range Community Church... Their mission statement is to be intentional neighbors through knowing and following Christ... And from our first Sunday there, we have been welcomed with open arms. Praise the Lord. Our kids LOVE Sunday school there, and we are so excited to become deeply involved in a community of intentional, Christ following people.
Ah, Life is good. Why do we doubt God's goodness even when He proves his faithfulness over and over again? Anyway, just a quick update that we are still here, resting in the grace of the God who is in the details and cares about us intimately... Yay!
