I think, by letting God lead you on this journey, you will eventually find your place. You are absolutely right in saying the journey to find the perfect church might be just as important for you. I'm eager to hear what happens when you return to the "big church." It is so hard to know the best route to take when our kids happiness and well being is involved.

My heart is so heavy for you right now. I will be praying for you all this week. This morning our Pastor was talking about pride and one of the things he said we are prideful in is being parents and never saying sorry to our kids, that we were wrong. (Not that I am telling you you were wrong in changing churches.) But that you are MORE RIGHT than a lot of us in wondering, praying, and giving this big church another chance. Maybe the timing wasn't right the first time. Who knows? But all we can do is our best at being parents and it really sounds like you are doing all you can for your kids. Truly, I applaud you and I hope oh so much that you will find a church home. Thank you for your honesty and your translucency. I'll be praying for all of you! Hugs. Ah, girl.

I am amazed at how you can homeschool. I have so much respect for mothers that can do such a job. I'm sure you will find your place and comfort soon. It's hard to be patient while things are planned for us! Good for you to share such deep thoughts and feelings.

To me that is what blogging is all about. Then you can hear encouragement from people all over the world! How great is that. Sounds like you have had a lot of trials. Many ups and downs. We have bounced around to a lot of churches too. We have one now, but it's still not our ideal...if that even exists. It's really large and we seriously don't know a soul. So I understand that desire to feel connected and to gain some support from other Christians. Just keep your chin up and pray for God's guidance. Sounds like you are doing a great job of trusting in Him. I am praying peace over you...right now! I loved that you shared your real thoughts. To me that is what blogging is all about.

I am a preacher's kid, and when my father passed away about 15 years ago, I left the church entirely. Slowly but surely I made my way back. But I still don't have a church that feels like home. A church where I feel I belong. I attend two different churches somewhat irregularly. There are things I like about each. But neither one belongs to ME.... I will pray that you find the church home that God has for you. Please pray the same for me! xo Sarah I absolutely and completely get where you are!

It can be difficult to know when it's God leading, and when it's our own impatience - I'm sure Joseph had trouble being at peace in an Egyptian prison, but look how well that worked out! I'll certainly join you pray :) Those are hard issues.

I firmly believe that. We've been here 5 years and have yet to find "our place". We'll be moving back to WA ASAP. Your not settled because your not where you need to be yet. I firmly believe that.
