Dear Luella,

Sorry to hear that you are leaving.
Thanks for the song.

Only this morning the reading from Word for Today talked about how one has to move on.

Here is the text of the message:

Are you ready for bigger things?		19 Sep 2007
'YOU...ENLARGED ME WHEN I WAS IN DISTRESS.' PSALM 4 :1
Did you know that the hermit crab looks for a shell that fits him, then lives in it till he outgrows it? At that point he has to scurry along the ocean floor and find a bigger one; it's a process that repeats itself throughout his entire life. Are you clinging to something that no longer fits you, just because it's easy and familiar? David said, 'You...freed me when I was hemmed in and enlarged me when I was in distress.' To develop and grow spiritually you must be willing to move out of your comfort zone and deal with a little 'distress.' What worked for you yesterday may not work today. Maybe it's a job you've outgrown, a relationship you need to re-examine or a behaviour you need to change. Regardless of what it is, never become so 'settled' that you can't let go and move on when you need to. Patience and persistence are admirable, but they won't work in situations you've outgrown. Instead of hanging in and trying harder, at certain points you have to stop and ask yourself, 'Is this situation good for me?' If you're not sure, ask God for 'an understanding mind [to]...know the difference between...right and...wrong' (1 Kings 3:9 TLB). His Word says, 'If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God...and it will be given to him' (James 1:5 NKJ). When God says it's time to move on, it's because there's another shell out there that will fit you even better. But you can't take occupancy till you vacate the old one. So how about it; are you ready for bigger things?

Hope your moving on means you will come back with more to share at Adland Pro or maybe we will meet elsewhere like Apsense.

May Our Father God bless you richly and may His Favour go before you.

Blessings

	Dearest Luella- My heart, my thoughts & my prayers are with you & John. May you find the strength, courage, hope and faith that enables us to persevere what life throws in our path, often causing us to detour from our best laid plans, altering our course through life. My grandmother often said, "that which does not kill us, makes us stronger". When your heart is heavy, mere words will never lighten your burden, but perhaps all of the prayers coming your way will provide some comfort. Take care, my friend & know that both you & John are loved & cherished, you are family to many... and many would willingly take the burden from your heart and bear it as their own.... May His grace give you peace, His love keep you warm, and His spirit fill you with hope and promise for a better tomorrow. In strength, hope, faith & love, Your friend, JeanMarie
