In the Beginning...

 Life is always crazy. The noise is never ending. The people are always coming and going. Long hours. The extreme highs and lows of North Dakota weather. It's the normal day in my life these days. We are long term campers. lol. Our home that we once knew dwindled down to fit inside of an RV. My husband, our dog Mojo, and Me. I love our simply life. Everyday is something new. Very unpredictable. I am learning to find joy in even the most simplest of tasks. God is there and he constantly reminds me that I am NOT alone. Much of this life is like the military life that we once lived. My husband works long hours, is "on call" on the weekends, and you get to meet people from all over the United States. Crazy as it sounds I love this life. I feel like God has led us here for some kind of specific reason. The reason unknown right now, but I am sure it will be revealed in time. It has huge opportunity for mission work here too. The amount of people that need Jesus is heartbreaking, but I know that slowly one by one will come to him and find their true happiness! What is God going to do with my little family? What does he want us to learn? How is he going to use us? It's exciting to think about what is possible with God because "Nothing is impossible with God"!
 Today I was reminded of how quick things can change in a matter of minutes. I was at the laundry mat and in comes 3 cops and a guy in handcuffs. He was there doing his laundry and walked outside to his truck and was surrounded by two cop cars. Crazy. He was accused of theft...someone had called in his truck stolen. I don't know if he was innocent or not but it was SO crazy. I just said a little prayer for him. That's all I could think to do. He needed it! God's grace is AMAZING!!!!
 Now I sit at the coffee shop downtown and watch people and wonder where they came from and what are their stories. God has created people so different. Not one person is exactly the same as another. I wonder what has brought them to Williston out of all places. Maybe one of these days I will have to ask them to tell me their story. Hmmm...it could be really interested!
 We have started going to church as of Sunday. We brought our neighbors that are also from Idaho and it was so awesome to worship with friends. We learned about Jonah and how he was afraid to go to Nineveh (sp?) and he was more willing to die than go and do what God wanted him to do in that town. Jonah kept saying "No" and God kept saying "Go". It hits a personal noted because that is how I was with coming to North Dakota. I didn't want to leave the place that I only knew as home. My comforts. I was afraid, but God put peace in my heart and I finally said "Yes"! God has truely blessed our decision and I can't wait to see what God is going to do!!!! He is at work and he can do great things!

 Until next time....Bless all that read this!
