It’s been a little over a year since I decided to move. I have been in Savannah since February and have made a lot of great friends and have become comfortable calling it home. I have been really focused lately on getting people moved down here and what Canvas Church is going to look like. I have been really anxious to get everything started, to know what the future will look like.
This past week has been great. I went to church on Sunday and heard my new friend Gary sing a song that shares it’s name with the title of this blog. It’s funny how God gives you little moments of clarity. The whole time he was singing it I was just thinking about all the stress I have had lately, not to mention all the stress that Kendal, Justin, Jared & April have been experiencing as they are moving down here in the next couple of weeks. Mark & Trisha just started a new family, they have Trey now and are trying to sell their house and are anxious to move. Each of us have our own worries.
Then there are Doug & Shelly. Not only are they moving their whole family to a new place, they are taking on a role of Pastor to a group of people they don’t even know yet. They are going to be attacked the most, more than anyone else in our group. Satan does not want them down here and he is going to try every little thing to stop it and he has.
We, as a church need to pray that God will help restore to us the joy of our salvation, to help us stay focused on the reason we are moving to this city.
