Moving Day!

I love to move. That is really not true...because the older I get, the less I like it! Moving continues to get harder and harder. But while pondering this last move, I thought of a few things to consider. As we moved, we had to get out most of our stuff that had been in storage for two years. To save space, I will just give you some bullit points of my move.
There are many reasons why people move. Most of it stems from the need to move. Sometimes we do not have a choice. We are forced to move. Maybe we move because of opportunity that requires the move. When we move however the following happens....
1. Sometimes it takes us moving to clean out all of the clutter.
2. We find stuff that we did not even know we had.
3. We find things that needed to be cleaned out and discarded.
4. We find broken things.
5. We find things that we had lost.
6. We realize that the old stuff does not fit in to the new location, or what you now need.
7. We find that we need help to move.

In the book of James, Chapter 1, it speaks to us that we need to take a good look at ourselves. When we examine our lives, we should know that moving to the next level will be painful, but very much worth it. Philippians also shares with us and Paul urged us to press toward the mark of the high calling of God. You may have broken things, you may have a room that no one is allowed to peek in to. That room has to be cleaned out if you want to move. You may find that you have stuff that you did not know you had. Giftings, and spiritual blessings that have been hidden among all that stuff. It will take a move to uncover it. Got to go for now. Love ya, Jory

p.s. tell me your moving horror stories, or your funnies. jh
