Isaiah chapter 43 says, "Don't consider the former things, leave the past behind, behold I am doing a new thing."
That passage, and the fact that I've been hearing about His opening up new doors for me, gave me the sense that it's time to move.
I got some prayer about moving at church. As they were praying, I pictured a sunset. And the light of the sunset struck me. I felt it was speaking to me of the giving up of the sunrise views that I see from my couch each morning through my French doors. It spoke to me of a new direction. It spoke to me of leaving the memories of this house behind, and looking forward.
And it spoke to me of David's sunset. His night had come, but not really. His light had merely moved out of my view, just as the sun does when it sets. I can't see the powerful "afterglow" that he now lives in, but the glowing remnant of that sunset in my mind made me to know that what he's in now is so much more beautiful!
"He makes all things beautiful in His time."
At any rate, I think it's time to move.
Is. 61:7
"Instead of your shame, you shall have double honor,
And instead of confusion, they shall rejoice in their portion."

Sounds like abundant answered prayer.
Yes, I guess it does!
It was great to see you, Janet. You and Barry (and all of your children) are welcome all the time.
I am forever grateful for the wonderful other mom you've been to Sarah, and your warmth and hospitality to all of us when we've descended upon you in Vermont!
