Do you feel a move coming on? God is relocating people to new places to accomplish His plan. If you have felt uprooted and things are seemingly scattered everywhere, then you are not alone. It's time to let go and move on. There are plenty of new alignments and new assignments that have already happened and are happening now. God is strategic about His placement and His purpose for us. Don't stay stuck if God is plucking you up. By the end of March things will look much different than they do now.
1Corinthians 2:1-16
For I determined not to know any thing among you,
save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
And I was
with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
And my
speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but
in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
That your
faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
Howbeit
we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world,
nor of the princes of this world, that come to nothing:
But we
speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom,
which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
Which
none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they
would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
But as it
is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the
heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
But God
hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all
things, yea, the deep things of God.
For what
man knows the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even
so the things of God knows no man, but the Spirit of God.
Now we
have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God;
that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
Which
things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches, but which
the Holy Ghost teaches; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
But the
natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are
foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
But he
that is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
For who
hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind
of Christ.

Moving, changing, new things. Yes, 2015 is time for new adventures. I will be studying the Minor Prophets with a group, as one new thing.
I recently wrote a post on relocate or wait. I totally can relate to this post. Prayerfully obeying God just the way Abram did before he became Abraham. God Bless Hazel.

God has shifted/re-shifted me and my husband. He put us back in this particular neighborhood in '07 when we bought our former home out from my daughter and her husband as divorce was hitting. THEN the Lord laid it on me to start prayer walking around and about certain areas not far from this home. A number of gangs, many murderers and fighters, satanic situations historically have expanded. So, even though we would rather be in Uganda or many other places in our nation, or a slightly different place in Omaha, the Lord put us here to serve Him AND 3 years later He put the Bhutanese from up the street at an apartment complex into our lives. We started with 2 of them and now have 200 of them. So being where the Lord puts us is the important part. I always think of the wonderful "home" in heaven, b/c Dave always wanted to make me a very special one, and, even though re-building and re-organizing our house that we have back and was officially built back in '21, and it's reasonably nice, Dave still wants a special place for me. So, when I get to heaven and he ever shows up there, he'll be so happy to see the house the Lord gave me that he wanted to give me. Makes me smile.
Anyhow, being where the Lord calls us to be is all that counts...forever and ever. Thank you for sharing. I might have "shared" too much, but you sure grabbed my heart and my attention. Bless you.
