Saying Goodbye

Going to a smaller church always allows you to become close to those you are around. Today has been a sad moment in finding out that one of our fellow church goers are leaving the church. This family is nothing but precious to my husband and I. Our children are close in age and have had many good times together in the nursery. The mother spoke a strong mother's day message that pierced my heart and I would say in a way "changed my life". As I sit here my heart cries with the thought of them leaving. I love them so much, I may not of said it when I had the chance, but I always have loved them. They have been an inspiration and a blessing. I am privileged that God allowed me to know them.

God has so many plans and through those plans, God takes us from season to season. This family is now entering a new season in their life. I know going through a new season is God's way of bringing you closer to him. I pray for them as God takes them away from us and sends them somewhere else. I pray that many are blessed by their presence, and learn from them the way we have.
