Well here comes a new year 2009 is here can you believe it? This year for New Years we invited the Brethren over to play games and have sacks. It was fun to vist with everyone, and everyone stayed until midnight so I guess it was a sucess.
I wonder what this new year will hold for us? We will probably be moving to a different house sometime between now and summer. Our lease is up on this house next month, so we are looking around again to see what are options are. It looks like the price of rent has come down a little since last year, so we would like to go for somthing a little less if possible. Although I dread packing up again, it is always exciting to be in a different house. I guess I just like change.
I wonder what is in store for our assemely? Will our church continue to grow? Will there be new familes moving in? Will any move away? Will there be more who continue to join this faith wether they have been raised this way there whole life, or have come in from out of the world. The possiblites seem endless.
I wonder what new friendships may be in store, and what old frindships will continue to grow and be rekindeled.
I feel very blessed looking back on last year. Our little assembly has grown in size, and I feel our spirtual strength has been increased. My husband has been blessed with steady labor for his hands, our children are healthy. And we have been blessed with a home filled with family and brethren from time to time. I look forward to 2009 and what new blessings may be awaiting us. Although there are sure to be trials that come our way this year God will make them blessings in his own time.I look forward to those blessings.

Yes, this last year has been very very full and has had lots of blessings (three new births in the little church, if nothing else). I can't believe that we have been here for two years. It is flying by, and it is so neat to see all the growth. I think our friendship has really blossomed too. I count it as one of my blessings for 2008.
Well I'm glad, for one, that you are back again. Hopefully you will keep posting? LOL. Hope to see you soon.
P.S. How many moves in how many years of marriage does this make? You said how many last time, but I don't remember.
Sometime this year hopefully sooner than later, we will come down for church. We have been wanting to but before Malachi was born I didn't want to try that yet, and with the holidays over maybe we will get to soon.
I like change too but somehow we have only lived in two houses in our 6+ years of marraige! Oh well I guess there are good things about that too.
What a great post! BTW you might try talking to your land lord about how rent is cheaper now than when you rented. They might be willing to lower the rent a little to keep good and then you wouldn't have to move again.
