Sogard Your Heart: New Day, New Jersey

As we knew from the beginning of this journey--nothing is ever certain. Alex and I experienced a dose of this refreshing reality late last night. Alex has been promoted to AA Corpus Christi team; the promotion could be temporary due to injuries or it could be more permanent. We are extremely excited and ready to take on the up and downs The Lord has already prepared for us. This path was paved long before we began the journey and we are excited to see what we get the chance to "run into"!!!!!!

For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Ephesians 2:10

We love this verse in times of trial and happiness--because we can rest in the promises He has given us, knowing what we are walking through He has prepared for us and the path as well! It was certainly hard to send my man off without knowing exactly when I will see him, but those feelings are covered by happiness that he is getting to experience a different level of this game. Whether his time is short or long, we are beyond grateful for all of God's provisions along the way!! In the meantime, I am off to support my boys (Ben and Ben) and start to devise some organization and packing plan. Not being with these guys will be so very difficult for us and we just don't like goodbyes--so it will be "see ya later"--knowing these Bens will forever be in our life!!! Alex has arrived safely into Frisco, TX where the team is on the road for the next week. I am so glad he gets to play in such a cool part of the country and I told him to take pictures--so here's to hoping he follows through!!! What a cool opportunity we have of seeing many different places across the country!! Until then may you, too, be comforted in the fact that no matter what you are facing or dealing with now, it is all part of God's amazing plan!!!
