OK, Its not that i think what God is doing is wrong, ... its just that its really hard when He does these kind of things. well, my dads a youth paster and we have been serving and living in PA for three years know and we have really good relationships with a lot of people. evrything was going good. then, sometime in June,... my.. dad got a phone call from a paster who asked if he could be the youth paster! so my mom and dad have been praying about this the whole sumer. so, they, of coarse, felt that God was calling them to this church. they told this to me and my sister a little after they made this desition. so, know we are moving to MICHIAN! its not that im not happy, i really am, im exited, but at the same time im like, "why? why God? we were doing just fine here, so why do we have to move?" sometimes im a little upset with God, not like big time but i really am sad. wright know im really exited but at the same time im REALLY sad. i really need some encouragement. oh, and by the way, this is our 3rd move to a different state, but becuase im older know its hitting me A LOT harder than it did befor. sorry this had to be soooooo long. :unsure:

I feel your pain, I would hate to move away from my friends. Try looking at it on the bright side though, you and your family will help other people in Michigan. *hug*

im srry you have 2 move...but always remember God does things for a reason. He probably has big ideas for you in michigan! like maybe you might meet your future husband or maybe this is an experience to strengthen your faith. Just remember there are people who dont even have a place to live so dont take things for granted.

i know how you feel. and it's no fun. it hurts, and burns, and will leave a few scars. in the past 16 years of my life i've moved 12 times and lived in 9 different states. recently i made a move three hours away from my first high school, first boyfriend, first "real friends." it was no fun. and for a LONG time i asked God " WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!!! " but then I remembered Job in the bible and i think that i am spoiled. i have my family, and i have my health and all that. i'm not calling you spoiled for asking why or being sad or anything but i want you to know that everything will turn out GREAT! you'll find great friends where you're moving to and they'll be just as good as your old. ;) you guys will get along just as well in your new state as your old. :) just pray that God will show you his plan for this move. ;) God bless. <3

*hugs* I've never moved inter-state, but just over a year ago I moved inter-nation. It was hard, still is really. But good things have come because of it. I know it's hard, but learn to lean on G-d and trust Him. He is always there, and He knows what He's doing. It's hard when your future is uncertain, I know. But HE knows what your future holds, and He won't let you fall. I'm here if you need someone to talk to, ok?

1 Peter 4:12 Dear friends, do not be astonished31 that a trial by fire is occurring among you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice in the degree that you have shared in the sufferings of Christ, so that when his glory is revealed you may also rejoice and be glad. Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight Do not be wise in your own eyes; Sometimes the Lord does things we don't understand. But He see's all thing and He has a great plan for you and your family. Just keep your eyes on Him. He see's all things and He's in control.
