A ongoing Peace of twentyeleven

I've been thinking on how God has truly had his hand upon our family. Life has been life, and will continue to be life. It's amazing how much God has carried us through and will continue to, as long as we allow him to. I've yet to understand some things yet will continue to trust in God. He is our hope! Our redeemer! Our Life! Twentyeleven was a year of change. To briefly share a little something, God allowed us to meet up with a amazing family! It amazes me to see how God works. The relationship we built is one that will last a lifetime. We know the relationship that was built was one that was built on LOVE with LOVE! So thankful for the time we spent with the Settles family. Along with us their we're others that connected to them. No doubt friendship's were built and their transition from Tennessee to California was made a tad bit easier. In the short time of their move here, so much went on! One was their 12 year old daughter received the holy ghost! As families we were growing together, learning from one another. It's amazes how much you can learn by just listening. I am a firm believer on Gods ways not being our ways and believe everything has a purpose and life has its season's. Under circumstances that were out of their control they had to move back home this past December. I'm grateful to know they are keeping the faith and still believing that God has a plan! We are no longer able to spend the late night bible study's in their home, get the hugs, and just enjoy life with them being they had to move back home. In talking with my friend today, it brings tears to my eyes knowing she is striving to do what she can for her family. She also knows that its God in the midst of it all! If your willing please keep our friends, the Settle's prayer. We know and believe that God has a plan for them! With love, Rachel
